apple-gcc40 @5494_0 post-installation check is complaining about premature end of file

[snowflake (Dave Evans)]

I installed apple-gcc40 via a binary archive from one of the mirrors

​http://mse.uk.packages.macports.org/sites/packages.macports.org/apple-gcc40/

I have no reason to suspect the archive as it passed a bzip2 -t check and it also passed the rmd160 signature.

After the installation, port ran a check on the installed files with this result:

--->  Cleaning apple-gcc40

Warning: Error parsing file /opt/local/lib/apple-gcc40/lib/gcc/i686-apple-darwin12.2.0/4.0.1/kext/crt3.o: Premature end of data, possibly corrupt file

Here's a dump of the crt3.o file from the kext directory:

This file does indeed seem to be a bit short, but is it correct?

If it is correct, should 'port' be complaining?

Duplicate of #36996. There’s nothing wrong with that file, port rev-upgrade is just misclassifying it as a Mach-O binary.
