"C compiler cannot create executables" usually means Xcode is not installed properly. Ensure you've used xcode-select to select your Xcode installation, and also that you've installed the command line tools, from within Xcode's preferences window's downloads section. Consult MacPorts documentation for further information.
BINGO! That was it! Thanks! selfupdate ran, and now 'upgrade outdated' is running. I'll run the 'uninstall inactive' as well. This will probably take a while on such an old machine!
