Comment (by kencu):

 It's OK. {{{libgcc9}}} is a stub port now on < 10.8, and doesn't install
 any libraries.

 But because it has to install something, otherwise you get:
 {{{
 Error: No files have been installed in the destroot directory!
 }}}
 So now it installs a silly little readme saying it hasn't installed
 anything.

 Call it a MacPorts idiosyncracy -- it's just the way things work. It is
 too hard to do it differently, and have libgcc9 not install anything at
 all.
