Comment:

 Looks like an incompatibility with texinfo 5, which would not be
 surprising, since this version of yafc is from 2005, well before the
 release of texinfo 5. However I found a [http://www.yafc-ftp.com/ new
 homepage for yafc] where version 1.3.3 is available. The [http://www.yafc-
 ftp.com/news#release-1-2-5 project news says] texinfo 5 errors were fixed
 back in version 1.2.5. We should update the port to a newer version.

 By the way, in the future, please remember to
 [https://guide.macports.org/chunked/project.html#project.tickets.prerequisites
 clean and try again] before filing a ticket.
