Comment:

 I've updated the port to 2.2.26; please wait 30 minutes, then run "`sudo
 port selfupdate`" and "`sudo port upgrade outdated`" and then try again
 and let me know if that changes anything. Apache worked fine for me last
 time I used it on Leopard and on PowerPC but that was several years ago.

 I'm not familiar with "`bash -x`"... what does it do and why is it needed
 here?
