Update to current base trunk with this patch:

Attachment: tcl-boolean-return.patch
Description: Binary data


You'll get:

~/src/macports/dports/x11/xwininfo $ port lint
Can't map the URL 'file://.' to a port description file ("can't use empty 
string as operand of "!"").
Please verify that the directory and portfile syntax are correct.
To use the current port, you must be in a port's directory.
