This is that same error in go again.

So lets see what is up here. If go happens to be installed, then clang tries to build the go bindings. On 10.9 and less, go is sometimes installed, but it's broken, so the build of clang fails.

So we should see if we can disable the go bindings in clang (that would be nice, if possible), or we should not allow the go port to install on a system where it will be broken when it is run (that would be the better fix).

Of course, WRT MacPorts, clang should not opportunistically build the go bindings. We should either install the bindings, or not install the bindings.

For the original poster, if you deactivate go -- it's broken anyway -- then you should be able to install clang-8.0 and be on your way again.

Yes, it worked. Thanks Ken.
