The current version of xar on 10.13 is supposed to be 1.8.0.498. If you
have 501 installed, then not only is the assumption built into the
Portfile that that version fails to build on darwin < 23 incorrect, but
many users will never have "updated" to the rolled-back version because
the epoch was never increased (because there was no need because it
doesn't build anyway, right?)

One more case of a dynamically changing version causing problems.
