Comment (by wlwood3@…):

 I just wanted to say that the tips here worked for me in installing
 kmymoney4. It does not appear that I am able to increase the ulimit
 number, so I did have to break the large kmymoney list of dependencies
 down into smaller chunks. I thought that would mean an extremely tedious
 process of individually installing more than 100 packages, but the "port
 deps kmymoney" command gave me a list of only about a dozen. I installed
 each of those individually, then installed kmymoney4 and it works
 perfectly.

 Thanks for the help.
