Mac OS X Sequoia - php 7.4 installation failure...

[exlemor (Emmanuel Lemor)]

I am new to MacPorts, yes I did a search and couldn't find a similar report and a sudo port clean (that failed too) but I did see that when I tried re-installing it ran what appears to be a successful port clean

MacBook Pro mid-2018 - Intel i9, 32gig.

Xcode latest version 16 (Sequoia) clean installation after laptop had been hard drive wiped and Sequoia installed by Apple.

Here is the last sections of the log window during installation which failed twice (in what 'appears' to be the same way:
