New description:

 I first did a

 {{{
 sudo port -v selfupdate
 }}}

 which finished successfully.  I followed with

 {{{
 sudo port -v upgrade outdated
 }}}

 which stalled on the Python 2.7 module.  I then used

 {{{
 sudo port -vp upgrade outdated
 }}}

 to upgrade the other modules around the error (which seemed to finish
 successfully).  Upon coming back to try

 {{{
 sudo port -v upgrade outdate
 }}}

 thinking that having built other modules around it might resolve the issue
 but it again stalled on the Python 2.7 module at the same spot.  I attach
 the log file.

Comment:

 The error in the log is:

 {{{
 :info:destroot SyntaxError: ('invalid syntax',
 ('/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/test/pickletester.py',
 646, 21, '            self.loa$s(badpickle)\n'))
 }}}

 However I wouldn't put too much faith in that error yet, since this was
 not a clean build attempt. Please "sudo port clean python27", try again,
 then attach the new main.log.
