nss fails initial build at link phase

[objectivecanine@…]

While installing Pidgin via MacPorts on a brand new OSX installation, I get the following:

---> Building nss Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command "cd /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_net_nss/work/nss-3.12.3 && make -C mozilla/security/coreconf/nsinstall NSPR_LIB_DIR=/opt/local/lib/nspr NSS_USE_SYSTEM_SQLITE=1 USE_64=0 && make -C mozilla/security/dbm NSPR_LIB_DIR=/opt/local/lib/nspr NSS_USE_SYSTEM_SQLITE=1 USE_64=0 && make -C mozilla/security/nss NSPR_LIB_DIR=/opt/local/lib/nspr NSS_USE_SYSTEM_SQLITE=1 USE_64=0" returned error 2 Command output: _port_ArenaRelease in secport.o
