New description:

 I run 'port -f clean --all all' about once a week as part of my regular
 routine maintenance tasks. When I ran it today, it aborted after the
 cleaning drush msg:

 {{{
 --->  Cleaning druntime
 --->  Cleaning drupal5
 --->  Cleaning drupal6
 --->  Cleaning drupal7
 --->  Cleaning drush
 Error: Unable to open port: invalid command name "}|̂}|͹oH͹oVcc¤´­p"
 }}}

 I tried twice and got the same unintelligible error each time. Running
 port rev-upgrade reports no broken files found.

Comment (by larryv@…):

 I don’t see anything wrong with the portfile. Perhaps yours has been
 corrupted somehow. Try this:

 {{{
 % sudo rm $(port file drush)
 % sudo port selfupdate
 % sudo port clean --all all
 }}}
