works for me it's fine. Over one week ago it stopped working: it's not
possible to update Portfiles and patch files. And maybe port is on strike
and won't perform anything until the advertised new version is installed.

Presumably your only issue is that `port selfupdate` is failing due to
tripping over the broken 10.5 build and not honoring `-p`. If your ports
tree is new enough to include the `MacPorts` port with the patch, then
what I suggested above should work, and then things should work normally
afterward. If your ports tree is too old, you may have to do a `port
sync` first to get the updated `MacPorts` port.
Admittedly, this requires using `port sync`, which I usually don't trust
since its documentation is so outdated that it still talks about how it
interacts with SubVersion, with no mention of what it may or may not do if
you're using `git`. :-)
