This looks like the error commonly seen when there is a standard library mismatch using a current version of libgcc on an older OS.

malloc: *** error for object 0xa00fd7c4: pointer being freed was not allocated

This is what iains was talking about someday fixing in gcc perhaps. For now, we have a kinda ugly workaround in legacysupport 1.1 that can work, sometimes. See the TCL code of the legacysupport 1.1 PortGroup for the gory details.

[kencu (Ken)]

The error might actually be in the port that provides doxygen.

It might be just broken (doxygen). Try running doxygen directly in a terminal.

If it is doxygen that is broken, the fix would be to use the legacysupport wrapping trick in the port that provides doxygen.

[kencu (Ken)]

doxygen works perfectly on ppc in Tiger PPC.

We will not want to disable doxygen for all ppc just to suite a rosetta build hardly anyone uses.

perhaps you can sort out what is wrong with it on rosetta.
