I was actually trying to install xeyes as a test, which told me I was
missing pkgconfig.
Here is a bunch of the output.  I'm pretty lost; the last time I had a
need for macports, everything 'just worked'.

Thanks for taking a look!

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables XEYES_CFLAGS
and XEYES_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

To get pkg-config, see <http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig>.
See `config.log' for more details.
