Thanks for including the log file.

This is mostly a macports issue I think not specifically M2 related. 

This seems to be the same issue as in 

https://lists.einsteintoolkit.org/pipermail/users/2024-August/009434.html

and the workaround for now is to (see that email for more details)


```
export LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib/libaec/lib
```

before running `sim build`.

With this I still get some warnings that are however harmless and I can
run the resulting executable. Eg

```
./exe/cactus_sim -T
```

which will output a (long) list of all compiled in thorns.

Yours,
Roland
