This appears to be because qt4-mac recently changed to a framework-only build. I was able to build kdiff3 with qt4-mac @4.8.2_3+quartz+universal but not with qt4-mac @4.8.3_0+quartz+universal. Michael, do you have any ideas how this can be fixed?

Looks like the "configure" command is failing. That's a pretty non-standard way to do configuration; let me see if I can update it a bit.

Done in r98183.

Apologies for this stupid question: Does "Done in r98183." mean that sooner or later a simple "port selfupdate" will solve my problem?

Yes, but questions like this tend to get ignored on closed tickets. In the future, use the ​Macports Users Mailing List.
