Comment(by thewoolleyman@…):

 I got this working with another command (had tried it myself before your
 prior comment).

 I believe this was the trick (some other random incorrect things omitted):

 {{{
 sudo port clean --work xorg-renderproto
 sudo port -f install xorg-renderproto
 }}}


 I'm still wondering if this could have just "fixed itself" - why did I
 have a long-gone invalid 'render' port, and why didn't it just get
 autoupgraded or auto-replaced or something, without the need for manual
 intervention like this.

 Anyway, works now.  Thanks a lot for your help.
