 There’s no way you have a working installation. You can’t just skip steps
 like that.

 uninstall] and follow the build instructions again. You //must// run the
 `configure` script that comes in the MacPorts tarball before running
 `make` and `sudo make install`. (You may have to adjust the uninstallation
 instructions, as I have no idea where your MacPorts could have installed
 itself.)

 Thank goodness you said that.  Following the installation again, there was
 no 'configure' program to run... although there had been for the previous
 efforts.  I shall look into this effort more closely.
