MacPorts would have then installed the fuse4x port (or the macfuse port, if you

This probably also went into /usr/local and confused MacPorts.

If you're happy with that, then that's fine, but we cannot offer assistance for 
MacPorts installations on computers that also have things installed in 
/usr/local.
