The Pextlib.dylib file is also not universal. I opened the DarwinPorts-1.3.1.pkg, extracted the Archive.pax.gz file, extracted the contents and copied the proper dylib file from there...

Thank you very much, Ryan, Paul and Chuck for your hints.
Now, I think that deserves some kind of explanation of the top page of MacPorts, don't you think ?
No, I think MacPorts needs to work properly without requiring such ridiculous fiddling. I don't know the MacPorts internals, but can someone who does please comment on WTF is going on here? Why can most people install MacPorts just fine, but some people experience this problem that is so cumbersome to fix? How do we fix it in MacPorts so nobody needs to muck with it like this to get it to work?
