On what OS is this?

When do you get this -- when running the "port" command? Any port  
command or only specific commands?

Was this MacPorts installation perhaps copied to this computer from  
another computer, of a different processor architecture or OS  
version? If so, that probably won't work, and you should reinstall  
MacPorts on this computer using the correct dmg for this OS version.

Reinstalling MacPorts from the correct dmg might be something to try  
anyway.

Also make sure you have the latest Xcode: 3.1 for Leopard, or 2.5 for  
Tiger.
