There must be some other factor involved.  indri has been using
p5.34-io-tty since I last did "port update" there, which looks
to have been 22 March.  And it's not failing.  My laptop is
also okay with these tests, and it likewise has

$ port installed | grep io-.ty
  p5.34-io-tty @1.200.0_0 (active)

indri and laptop are both on latest macOS Tahoe, maybe the
problem only manifests on older releases?

            regards, tom lane
