Comment (by raimue):

 Please remember WikiFormatting.

 `/opt/local/bin/xmlwf` should be provided by expat. However, the file
 already exists on your system and this is unexpected. It might be a
 leftover from a previous install, did you migrate this MacPorts
 installation in any way? Did you restore files from a Time Machine backup?
