Comment(by stephen@…):

 Of course, as I told you, there is no such file '''anywhere''', as
 reported by find / -name error.log (which took literally hours).

 The problem is that somehow I have a bunch of ports with no image
 directory and the archive file already built, so the command
 {{{
 "system "cd $location && $tarcmd -cjf $newlocation * >
 ${targetdir}/error.log 2>&1""
 }}}
 barfs on the "cd $location" command '''before''' the error log is created.

 OTOH, I '''also''' have a bunch of ports '''with''' an image directory, so
 now port -u barfs trying to uninstall them.  On top of that, I have a
 bunch of ports with non-bz2 archives, so the short-circuit of detecting
 the archive and not trying to build one in that case doesn't work.
