Building libcaca@0.99.beta19_6+x11 on a PPC fails unless cppunit compiled with GCC6 — at Initial Version

Port: | libcaca |
Description
If cppunit is installed and was compiled with GCC4.2, building libcaca will fail in the test directory on a PPC, due to missing symbols for PPC in cppunit.
The Portfile for libcaca contains the line
PortGroup cxx11 1.1
which will force the libcaca build to use GCC6 on a PPC. If cppunit is installed and was compiled with GCC4.2, the libcaca build will fail in the test directory due to missing symbols for PPC.
Recompiling cppunit with GCC6 fixes the problem. Someone who knows a lot more about Portfiles than I do could probably force the recompilation of cppunit from within the libcaca Portfile.
