 Xcode is not installed correctly]. Note that downloading Xcode from the
 App Store only places the Xcode installer into the Applications folder;
 you still need to run that installer in order to actually install Xcode.
 So please (re-)install Xcode, then clean the port ("sudo port clean
 expat") and try again. If that does not help and you get the same message,
 attach the config.log so we can see what happened.

 OK here's the output of gperf's config.log:

 {{{
 $ cat
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_gperf/gperf/work/gperf-3.0.4/config.log

 This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
 running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

 It was created by configure, which was
 generated by GNU Autoconf 2.61.  Invocation command line was

   $ ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --infodir=/opt/local/share/info

 It sounds like it has a problem with make, but make definitely exists:

 {{{
 which make
 /usr/bin/make
 }}}
