Incidentally, this OS was completely reinstalled last week. New MacPorts install. /opt/local/bin/curl crashes as well.

I think you're running into a problem with the linker that's part of Xcode on Tiger, which was fixed long ago. The replacement linker is in the MacPorts ld64 port, and that should have been installed when you installed apple-gcc42. Or do you have apple-gcc42 installed with the +bootstrap variant? If so, please reinstall it without the +bootstrap variant.
