Comment(by darren.weber.lists at gmail.com):

 I've tested a drastic solution to my immediate problem:
 {{{
 sudo rm -rf /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/libpqxx
 }}}

 This restores functionality to {{{port installed}}}.

 The receipt file may contain a syntax anomaly.  On looking at the receipt
 file, it appears to have syntax anomalies in the long_description.  In my
 Portfile, I have used several \ and \n tags to control the display of the
 long_description.  That may be non-standard formatting for this key value.
