 However, out of paranoia I decided to test this, and found that upgrading
 the individual port failed to do this.  See
 https://trac.macports.org/ticket/68820.

 I replayed a backup of that folder and tried to force activate, and then
 three openssl variants were presented and I could chose 3.1.4+universal (I
 guess those were the staged one). After that I just repeated a runthrough
 with MP, and it seems, everything is on its path again. I hope.

 IIRC, you did some shuffling to try to restore proper operation, which may
 have put things in a state that `port upgrade` couldn't fix.  In general,
 anything that gets the files in the tree inconsistent with the registry
 tends to confuse things, and AFAIK there are no automatic recovery tools
 for that sort of thing.
