The config.log indicates a serious problem with your clang-9.0 
installation:

Because the clang-9.0 port installs both /opt/local/bin/clang-mp-9.0 (a 
shell script) and /opt/local/libexec/llvm-9.0/bin/clang (the actual 
compiler binary, which is called by that script) it should not be 
possible to get that error unless damage has been done to the clang-9.0 
installation.

You should try to uninstall and reinstall clang-9.0, then try the 
installation of source-highlight again.
