Hi Luke;

  I wonder if there was an error introduced by the copy&paste with the mouse and/or with the formatting of the posting/email...I'll try to examine that specific area to see if anything shows up under a closer inspection.

  I don't think that downloading the zip file from GitHub would be any different than doing the git clone, but there's another difference that might be a cause, ever so remote.

  I'll try to get back to you with results shortly.

  Again, thanks for your efforts with regards to porting SDLADA towards MacPorts...
