Comment (by kencu):

 so I booted up my 10.13 VM today, uninstalled all the ports on it, updated
 it to the latest ports tree, and started my installation:

 {{{
 sudo port -f uninstall installed
 sudo port -v reclaim

 (removed everything)

 sudo port -v selfupdate
 }}}

 and then I started my installation of clang-15
 {{{
 sudo port -v install clang-15
 }}}

 and -- it installed clang-15 (and llvm-15) without any trouble, with no
 errors, touching nothing:
 {{{
 $ port -v installed

 Of course, it used the buildbot's prebuilt binaries in so doing, but there
 was no noted loop or issue using the default macports prefix of
 /opt/local, which is satisfied by the buildbot binaries.

 next I will try this again, uninstalling all the ports, and then build
 everything from source. I'll report back on results after it finishes
 (will be a few hours).
