Comment(by snc@…):

 Some additional thoughts from what I see up at the original description:
  * You had an outdated version of MacPorts: do selfupdate instead of sync,
 as sync is a subset of selfupdate's operations
  * You needed to run sudo for the clean operation: `sudo port selfupdate`
  * You should check for outdated ports once you get your compilers
 straightened about (which shouldn't have happened?): `sudo port upgrade
 outdated`
