What is the latest version of clang we've successfully built on macports so far?

You mean on ppc? There is no point to build any, they do not work. There is no general advantage either even if they did work: in many cases older systems with gcc perform better than < 10.9 with clangs (if not later).
LLVM and libc++ could be more sensible, but for both the best we got at the moment is 7.x.
llvm-powerpc: new port in lang by barracuda156 · Pull Request #23402 · macports/macports-ports
Description Second part of LLVM-7.1.1 for PowerPC. As before, the port is restricted to < 11 and ppc ppc64. Type(s) bugfix enhancement security fix Tested on macOS 10.5.8 ppc64 Xcode 3.1....

Install libcxx-powerpc on macOS with MacPorts
To the question itself: I think Ken has built clang-5.0 on 10.5 back then (and concluded it is useless), and the latest which is buildable is arguably Iain’s 7.1.1, but he also says in REAME of the repo that it produces wrong code for PPC.
With this in mind, I never bothered to build these: it will take effort to sort the build out, and in result you get ABI-inconsistent compiler which is unusable, at the very best
Iain planned to release llvm-11 with his fixes (maybe clang-11 too, I do not remember exactly), so if that happens, maybe something of utility will be there. This is not something I am ready to deal with on my own.
What can be potentially useful – but gonna require a lot of testing – is switching to libc++ on PowerPC. It will not work out of the box now, but if anyone wants to experiment, you will need the following:
1. Install libcxx-powerpc port. This corresponds to libc++ from llvm-7 with some improvements. So it is pretty old, though it is newer than what Macports installs on 10.6.8 Intel now.
2. Install https://github.com/barracuda156/macports-ports-powerpc/tree/Snow-PowerPC/lang/gcc-powerpc
Or gcc12, but modify stdlib_flag variant to use libcxx-powerpc headers.
Do not use gcc13, including that from my repo, it will not work now with libc++ (it does not work on Intel either due to a bug in gcc13, which has been fixed since then, but not in Macports).
If you use gcc-powerpc, update Macports base to https://github.com/barracuda156/macports-base-10A190/tree/gcc-powerpc
And pick fixed portgoups from https://github.com/barracuda156/macports-ports-powerpc/tree/gcc_move
3. Modify macports.conf to use libc++.
4. Either make sure to pass flags to link to libc++ and libc++abi where libcxx-powerpc installs them (see portfile) or move those to /opt/local/lib or /usr/lib (make sure you understand what you are doing here).
5. Have fun, you are the first person on the planet to use libc++ on macOS PowerPC
(Well, I did verify it can work in a simple isolated case, but AFAIK nobody tried to switch to libc++ for the port-tree as such.)
Does anyone happen to have a working Macports for ppc64 at the moment? I need to test something. At least gcc7 is required.
Some news:
abiword-x11 fixed for PowerPC (Word-like text processor)
glade fixed for PowerPC
abaddon added, work on PowerPC (Discord client)
FileZilla will work once this PR is merged

How about you test this for us? )
I have no one to chat with there LOL
Channels work.
ok! when my g3 will finish to build I'll let you know!
I've been trying to get mono 6 working on my powermac g5 running 10.5/leopard with macports. It fails to compile at the moment, tho I was able to fix some of the compile errors. But I'm stumped on the next problem. I get these weird "Parameter syntax error (parameter 1)" errors, which this post leads me to believe are assembler errors. Would appreciate any help on this.
Here is the patch I made to get past some compile errors. You also have to add
compile flag to bdwgc's Makefile for that to build (I didn't include it in the diff because it has a lot of other crap in it).

However, it does not build with those still LOL. I think they are needed, we just need to fix something else.
P. S. Re your patch: `pthread_threadid_np` is unavailable on PowerPC in general (including 10.6.8), so should be excluded accordingly. `pthread_getname_np` should be available in 10.6 ppc/Rosetta (though may or may not work correctly, from experience).

It is likely a broken `mono/utils/mono-context.h` which uses unprefixed register numbers (fixed in my branch).
Or somewhere else the same silly error.
To make building easier how do you build with Macport's legacysupport without building with macports/portfile? Is there a way I can get autogen to find it? I checked the github page and the portfiles tutorial and didn't see anything.
Does it not work to just pass flags to the compiler? I see no reason why something which works inside MacPorts won’t work outside it, provided you replicate the needed settings manually.
Fancy codes sits in the portgroup: https://github.com/barracuda156/mac...resources/port1.0/group/legacysupport-1.1.tcl
But simply passing cppflag and ldflag will normally do.
Thanks. I had assumed macports was doing some type of black magic with the autotools.
I applied my changes and and it got stuck at the same point: sgen-stw.c where I got these errors:
So I had gcc output assembly for sgen-stw.c and I got the attached file. Of note is:
The other
's in file look like this:
where the first argument has an 'r'. So I guess the assembly format is incorrect for this assembler? I can't imagine gcc is generating those lines, so probably there's inline assembly that's wrong (probably assumes a different assembler for ppc?).
Time for me to learn assembly. I've got my weeked cut out for me!

stw r0,8(r1)Time for me to learn assembly. I've got my weeked cut out for me!
Could you add a link to the exact source file?
Registers must be prefixed, so it should be `stw rX …`.
If something generates non-prefixed register numbers, that should be fixed.
I assume you have used patches from my tree (at least those related to assembler)?
I should probably not do this in the middle of my lunch break at work... I was using your project on github but I didn't have the right branch selected.
Ok... I tried again with the right branch this time..
Just to see how far the compilation would go I changed

make[3]: *** [libmonosgen_la-sgen-alloc.lo] Error 1I need to try building it, I remember nothing now about the issue LOL, and perhaps the code changed since then.
I would avoid using gcc7 though, it has issues. gcc13 works fine on PowerPC (MacPorts version), otherwise you could even try gcc upstream.
If you do not want to use MacPorts, then the easy way would be to build gcc10 from Iain’s repo: https://github.com/iains/gcc-10-branch (it is somewhat outdated, but it works fine, I just used it to build gcc15 a few weeks ago).
I just tried building mono with gcc13, just to make sure previous errors aren't the result of a bug in gcc7, and it fails on the exact same step.
Thanks for the advice tho. I was only using gcc7 because macports installed it to build a package, I didn't know such recent gccs still worked on legacy osx.
I dropped gcc7 two years back and using whatever latest version MacPorts has, they work fine and certainly better than gcc7 (there were a number of ppc-specific bugs fixed recently, and fixes were not back-ported to gcc7).
Right now built gcc15 from the current master and running Fortran test suite
I will try building Mono over the weekend. I remember it did not build for me earlier but not sure the failure was identical.
For the record, did you change anything as compared to my branch? (I mean, you could also have fixed something which is unfixed there, that will be useful.)
