Do you have multiple shell profiles? In the MacPorts install instructions
after editing the .profile, I put this in the Important Notes:
Other profile files may conflict with ~./profile and should be removed, so
remove any occurrances of these files:
~/.bash_login
~/.bash_profile
That was my stab at anticipating problems. I'm not entirely sure it is
correct, but it seems like a bad idea to have more than one and I'm not
sure the order of precedence if these files are present in addition to
~/.profile.
