Hmmm...  I've never touched macports.conf in my life (because I won't know 
what I'm doing), but I see this:

-rw-r--r--  1 root  admin  5787 Dec  1  2010 macports.conf
-r--r--r--  1 root  admin  8248 Nov 22  2014 macports.conf.default

The first would be the original Snow Leopard file, and the second would be 
Yosemite (with attendant differences in default build architectures).

Am I in trouble?  I've had no problems with ports.
