-== Migrating a MacPorts install: new OS, Xcode or CPU architecture ==
+== Migrating a MacPorts install to a new major OS version or CPU architecture ==
 
 An installation of MacPorts and the ports installed by it are only designed to work on a single OS release and a single CPU architecture. If you upgrade to a new OS version (e.g. from Leopard to Snow Leopard) or migrate to a new machine with a different type of CPU (e.g. PowerPC to Intel), you may get lucky and have your ports keep working, but in general, things will break.
