Error from main.log:

{{{
:info:configure configure: error: Unable to configure with Fortran support
because configure could not determine the size of a Fortran INTEGER.
Consider setting CROSS_F77_SIZEOF_INTEGER to the length in bytes of a
Fortran INTEGER
}}}

I had a similar failure with last update. I had to wipe out /opt/local
and completely rebuild all ports. Along the way something is causing this
to fail again.

OS 10.14.1, xcode: 10.1

Comment:

The real error in the config.log is:

{{{
collect2: fatal error: /opt/local/bin/gnm returned 1 exit status
}}}

`gnm` is provided by the binutils port. When you installed the binutils
port, you should have seen this notice:

{{{
binutils has the following notes:
Having binutils installed will cause some other ports to fail to build.
Consider uninstalling binutils.
}}}

Try uninstalling or at least deactivating the binutils port, then cleaning
mpich-default and trying to build it again.

Comment (by datajerk):

Thanks. When migrating to Mojave and rebuilding all ports I must have
missed that warning. Builds now. Thanks again.
