Thanks all for your help and insights!

Known Problem:  Some critical files are PPC vs i386/MacBook Pro; thus  
must be removed.

1) I decided to dump the entire /opt (actually stored in different  
locale in case I SCREW UP).
2) Connect to internet via phone vs in-house (firewall) ethernet.
3) Download fresh macports appl.
4) Update MacPorts & Re-Installed files:

[/Users/Ric]sudo port
Password:
MacPorts 1.442
Entering interactive mode... ("help" for help, "quit" to quit)
[Users/Ric] > selfupdate
DarwinPorts base version 1.442 installed
Downloaded MacPorts base version 1.442
The MacPorts installation is not outdated and so was not updated
selfupdate done!
