Before you said you were using an Intel Mac:

Are you experiencing the issue on multiple machines?

I do generally recommend updating Xcode, although if you already have  
2.4.1, I don't think there are a lot of changes in 2.5. If you have  
earlier than 2.4.1, definitely upgrade; MacPorts install  
documentation says we require at least Xcode 2.4.1 on Tiger because  
earlier versions are known to be problematic in various ways.
