As a consequence I downloaded the new Xcode and installed the command line utilities and pointed everything in the right direction.  Then I reinstalled MacPorts from .dmg and the ran sudo port self update and then sudo port upgrade outdated.  All of which took time but apparently worked correctly.

That's not the correct procedure for migrating to a new OS release, please see:

I would try following the Migration instructions as a first step.

Everything is fine if I comment that line out.  The pdf file is corrupt (see error message below) if I leave that line in.  I haven't changed the drawing since last week.  I tried reading through the log file, but nothing jumped out at me.
