I'm not sure what situations trigger this error, but I inadvertently committed
a circular dependency with the tiff port earlier today. Maybe you happened to
be trying it right at the time it was broken. You could "sudo port selfupdate"
and try again. If that doesn't fix it, then that wasn't it and you could try
Chris's suggestion.
