There has been a commit to support Apple Silicon in 2021: https://github.com/openwall/john/commit/c9825e688d1fb9fdd8942ceb0a6b4457b0f9f9b4 But no release has been cut since 2019. So maybe there should be a new way offered (via a port variant?) to build the port from the GutHub master branch.

Ticket #67973 says basically the same thing as this ticket, but it was filed in response to a build error on port "john-jumbo", while this ticket does not apply to "john-jumbo".
