Comment (by ryandesign):

 But you'll notice the new log is 3.8MB compared to the old log's 11.4KB so
 we now have more information we can analyze.

 For example, I see this in the new log:

 {{{
 :info:install a ./Applications/MacPorts/Emacs.app/Contents/Frameworks
 /native-lisp/29_4-ca101c6e/subr--trampoline-
 782d7365727665722d6d61782d726571756573742d73697a65_x_server_max_request_size_0.eln

 }}}

 Lines beginning with `a` are adding files to an archive. Lines beginning
 with `x` are extracting files from an archive. They seem to be happening
 simultaneously. This seems unusual to me but the way that ports are
 activated was overhauled in MacPorts 2.10.0 and I am not yet familiar with
 it so it may be normal.

 What caught my eye about this though is that for this file that you're
 having a problem with—`subr--trampoline-
 782d7365727665722d6d61782d726571756573742d73697a65_x_server_max_request_size_0.eln`—I
 see an entry where its name is preceded by `._` (and this is the only file
 that does this). Such files have caused us problems with activation
 before; see #60749. The question is why this port seems to have a `._`
 file and how we can get rid of it.
