Comment (by jakwings@…):

 Well, I have try to manually install all missing dependencies of xorg-
 server,

 {{{
 ~ sudo port upgrade $(port echo depof:xorg-server)
 Error: xorg-bigreqsproto is not installed
 Error: xorg-resourceproto is not installed
 Error: xorg-scrnsaverproto is not installed
 Error: xorg-xcmiscproto is not installed
 Error: xorg-xtrans is not installed
 ~ sudo port install xorg-util-macros xorg-font-util xorg-bigreqsproto
 xorg-resourceproto xorg-scrnsaverproto xorg-xcmisproto xorg-xtrans
 ~ sudo port upgrade outdated
 }}}

 and it was so successful when upgrading xorg-server. :-)

 Then I uninstalled the new one and dependencies I manually installed, and
 re-upgrade the old one. Although it was successful again, but I found that
 some dependencies were not installed at all! Maybe MacPorts has gone mad
 on my computer? I don't want to reinstall MacPorts. That's painful. I hope
 this is just a problem related to xorg-server port.
