In a glib2-devel update some months ago, legacysupport was added to fix something erroring related to aligned memory access:
[04e909d5945557a659b2ab065bbbdd3e6447045f/macports-ports]
This then moved into glib2 on last week’s update.
Might be useful to see how the glib2 test suite liked the aligned memory access changes, assuming there are tests for that.

the assertion is coming from gslice.c it seems.
here’s a slightly older version found in debian’s source browser

I didn't see gexiv2 in my outdated packages at the last run, so I guess it compiled? I have a couple of continuously failing packages that do not allow a full upgrade to complete, but it is not one of them, so it seems solved.

Replying to rmottola:

Sounds good, glad it's no longer an issue!
The log says:
Searching for this error, I think GSlice is part of GLib. Which glib2 port is installed, and is it installed single-arch or universal?
Back when glib2 used autotools there were extensive patches to ensure everything worked correctly for every arch, even when built universal. When the port was updated to a version that had dropped autotools support the patches had to be rewritten and it's possible some aspect was missed. Or it could be a new problem unrelated to that.
