If you had read my entire email you would have seen that I have tried
building (rebuilding) everything again.

I guess the reason I am asking for what I am … is that (for example), the
less popular HomeBrew for OS X offers methods for using GCC (a switch for
'install --use-gcc') as my preferred compiler, and not defaulting to
Apple's default compiler. I just was hoping that the maintainers for the
overall MP sources would create something similar.

If you are able to build Pango weekly…then you must be doing something
differently that I.  Possibly not using the same Arch/Platform or possibly
you customize your Portfile prior to building.  My issues stem from the
default Portfile and using MacPorts pretty much as is, with some minor
variant changes and setting x86_64 only as my build_arch. (Though I have
tried i386 and get the same results).
