New description:

 This broke my system.  After running port selfupdate and port upgrade
 outdated, the system was not successfully updated.  Instead an error was
 presented regarding one of the packages and a message linking to this site
 was shown: LibcxxOnOlderSystems . I accessed the site after which I
 followed the instructions to install libcxx on the system.  This did not
 work.  After Step #3, for Uninstall of all the remaining inactive ports
 using the command: sudo port -v -f uninstall inactive and during Step #4
 for Build a newer clang compiler using libc++ and uninstall the old one
 using libstdc++ and using the command  sudo port -v install clang-3.7
 results in:

 I'm not really interested in updating to the latest version of OS/X or
 Xtools, I was wondering does this basically mean there is no longer
 support for 10.8.x users?
