 > I temporarily trashed the TestBigEndian.cmake and its alias

 You should delete the alias or symlink in /opt/local/share/cmake/modules,
 since MacPorts said it didn't install it. You should not delete the
 original in /opt/local/share/cmake-2.8/Modules since MacPorts said that
 was installed by the cmake port and is presumably needed for something. If
 you already deleted the original from /opt/local/share/cmake-2.8/Modules,
 you can get it back by deactivating and re-activating the cmake port:

 {{{
 sudo port -f deactivate cmake
 sudo port activate cmake
 }}}

 Looks like the same problem with another file. Do the same thing: find out
 if that file was provided by MacPorts; if not, delete it.

 > Upon multiple failures these past months in installing KDENLIVE, I had
 had installed some weeks ago a CMAKE 2.8-10 Mac OS App, which is in my
 Utilities folder now. But it didn't help with stuff either. Perhaps it
 made matters worse with installing superfluous .cmake files? Maybe I ought
 to do complete overhaul and reinstall a single instance of a CMAKE?

 If you would like a separate copy of cmake installed outside of MacPorts,
 you're of course welcome to have that, but MacPorts certainly doesn't need
 it; MacPorts will use its own version of cmake. One would hope that the
 separate copy of cmake would not install any files into the MacPorts
 /opt/local directory but I've never used it so I can't say for certain.

 > Else, should I do something about the '''macports.conf''' file? Or
 should I force all ports to rebuild with '''x86_64''' architecture?

 If you have not followed the migration procedures after upgrading to a new
 major version of OS X, then yes, you should do so.

 Certainly at least this line is wrong:
 {{{
 macportsuser            root
 }}}

 Perform the steps in the migration instructions to manually compare your
 old macports.conf with the new macports.conf.default and adopt any changes
 that we've made in macports.conf.default over the years.
