Comment (by dyne2meter):

 This business with sbcl is not a deal breaker for me. I need it for
 building maxima, but there are just-about-up-to-the-moment pre-built
 packages available elsewhere.

 MacPorts is kind of a canary-in-the-coal-mine for me and my systems. My
 machines date from 2008 and won't even download Sierra. I have maxima,
 which depends on sbcl, but can get an up-to-date built package elsewhere.
 Most of my interest in MacPorts is for my python installation, but there
 are other ways to go for that, as well.

 A few months back, sbcl was again broken for me, and it took a very long
 time before it was patched; I was not in on the process.

 To help out here, should I download a source package for sbcl to see if I
 can build it outside the MacPorts system?
