 > "C compiler cannot create executables" usually means Xcode is not
 installed properly. Ensure you've used xcode-select to select your Xcode
 installation, and also that you've installed the command line tools, from
 within Xcode's preferences window's downloads section. Consult MacPorts
 documentation for further information.


 BINGO!  That was it!  Thanks!
 selfupdate ran, and now 'upgrade outdated' is running.  I'll run the
 'uninstall inactive' as well.
 This will probably take a while on such an old machine!  (Late 2006 17"
 C2D iMac.)
