gmake @4.3_0+guile: crashes occur with some ports: cmake-bootstrap, p5.28-io-compress-brotli

[snowflake (Dave Evans)]

Neither of the two ports mentioned in the summary depend on gmake to build, but they will both use gmake if it is available.

Deactivating gmake allows the ports to build.

Tested on macOS 10.11, 12, 13

On macOS 12, cmake-bootstrap builds, p5.28-io-compress-brotli fails On macOS 13, both ports fail

How to repeat:

sudo port install gmake +guile
sudo port clean p5.28-io-compress-brotli
sudo port -s build p5.28-io-compress-brotli

Depending on OS, various errors will be displayed such as "Segmentation fault'
