Comment(by blb@…):

 Note that my patch updates both configure and aclocal.m4 (I really only
 updated the latter and used regen.sh to create a new configure).

 Updating macports.tcl could also work, but that would only affect
 selfupdate, not if someone manually runs configure/make/make install to
 update their install.  Doing it by stripping PATH in configure and
 remembering that for make works in both cases.
