 That looks like an HTTP header, which should not occur in the content of a

 Uverse internet service]. So you can probably just clean and try again
 ("`sudo port clean --all zlib`") and hopefully it won't happen this time.
 You should ask AT&T for further assistance if you experience that problem

 You could see if copying /usr/bin/gnutar from OS X 10.8 into /usr/bin on
 your Mavericks system works. Once MacPorts officially supports Mavericks
 you should remove that again.
