wcslib @4.23: parallel build succeeds bug log shows errors

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Installing wcslib @4.23 succeeds but the log​ shows errors:

:info:build error: /opt/local/bin/ranlib: can't open file: libwcs-4.23.a (No such file or directory)

:info:build /opt/local/bin/ranlib: archive member: libwcs-4.23.a(wcshdr.o) size too large (archive member extends past the end of the file)
:info:build ar: internal ranlib command failed

:info:build Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
:info:build   "_wcspih", referenced from:
:info:build       _main in wcsware.o
:info:build   "_wcsutrne", referenced from:
:info:build       _unitfix in libwcs-4.23.a(wcsfix.o)
:info:build       _wcsutrn in libwcs-4.23.a(wcsunits.o)
:info:build ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64

This may be a parallel build error; the serial log​ doesn't show these errors.

The straightforward fix here is to disable the parallel build. I've added a Portfile patch which does that at #43766.
