-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
 I've just installed 1.9.1 and ran the self update and an update to any
 outdated ports of which there were none.  I then tried to install git-core
 and the debug version of the command returned a bunch of this:

 DEBUG: Searching for dependency: xorg-xcmiscproto
 DEBUG: Didn't find receipt, going to depspec regex for: xorg-xcmiscproto
 DEBUG: Searching for dependency: xorg-xextproto
 DEBUG: Didn't find receipt, going to depspec regex for: xorg-xextproto

 before returning:


 Error: Internal error: port lookup failed: too many nested evaluations
 (infinite loop?)
 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
 To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets>

 I tried installing some of the dependencies to see if I could reduce the
 number and let ports move forward.  bzip2 went in fine, python26 gave me
 the same error.
