Impossible to know for sure what the problem is without seeing the Portfile, but it looks like you may have accidentally cleared configure.args.

Okay thanks! I fixed the problem. In the process, I found that Portfile keywords now require a preceding blank line, is this correct?

When I edit a portfile, I usually comment out a line and replace it on the next line. This practice was acceptable at least through macports v2.6.2. I guess the portfile parser was updated since then, although from skimming the macports-base changelog, I do not see a related commit. Anyway, could the lint option check for this condition?
