Ok, great. Please always clean and try again before reporting a problem.

That subset is called the Xcode command line tools.

At present, MacPorts is still designed under the assumption that you have both Xcode and the Xcode command line tools installed (because they were both in the same installer in Mac OS X 10.6 and earlier). Some ports will fail to install if you only have one or the other installed, so to avoid problems, it is recommended to install both.
