No, I haven't installed 2.3.18 and haven't experienced any problem.
I'm a light user of gimp, and as a user, I just feel safer using the
stable version. Thinking there might be other casual users out there
feeling the same as me, it seems to me that having 2.2.17 in macports
would be helpful.

Best
