I can't reproduce this failure on Lion, but I do notice that it appears to be using clang for compiling some portions which I can't understand as it should be using the gcc45 toolchain...

What version of Xcode are you using?

[dhall@…]

XCode 4.2 All other packages were downloaded as prebuilt, this was the only one that tried to build, so that may have caused problems? Along that line, I should note, ​http://packages.macports.org/py26-scipy/ last built on March 4, but you last changed the port file on March 14. If the buildbot is also failing, you may be able to test there.

The most recent change was to switch the default variant, I doubt that would have effect in this case. Just to rule that out, does using the gcc44 varient result in the same error? That will probably result in downloading the pre-built package, so can you pass the -s option to port for force a build from source, i.e.

sudo port -s install py26-scipy +gcc44

Have you tried rebuilding python26, as detailed in the ProblemHotlist?

you can close this (I don't see a way for me to do so)
