When I temporarily switched to clang 3.9 in macports.conf with

default_compilers  macports-clang-3.9

that warning showed for every installation

$ sudo port install highlight
Warning: All compilers are either blacklisted or unavailable; defaulting to 
first fallback option
Warning: All compilers are either blacklisted or unavailable; defaulting to 
first fallback option
--->  Computing dependencies for highlight
...

and the following line was added on each `port info`, even to those ports that 
don't need it

Build Dependencies:   clang-3.9
