 The first attempt to upgrade mpfr ended like this:
 {{{
 book:~ test$ sudo port upgrade mpfr
 Password:
 --->  Fetching mpfr
 --->  Attempting to fetch mpfr-2.4.0.tar.lzma from
 http://trd.no.distfiles.macports.org/mpfr/2.4.0
 --->  Attempting to fetch mpfr-2.4.0.tar.lzma from
 http://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-2.4.0/
 --->  Verifying checksum(s) for mpfr
 Error: Target org.macports.extract returned: Failed to locate 'lzma' in
 path:
 '/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin'
 Error: Unable to upgrade port: 1
 }}}

 Then I grabbed the port lzmautils and the installation of mpfr was
 unproblematic.

 I don't know, if there is a better lzma port out there for making a
 dependency, but IMHO some check should be made, whether lzma is installed
 or not and in need to grab the relevant port for expanding mpfr (if that
 one really has to be in the lzma flavor).
