The problem is that there are invisible unicode byte-order marks at the beginning of the Portfile. If you edit the Portfile with "vi -b" you'll see them.

The just-committed ghostscript 8.60 seems to fix this.

The openMotif bug is #12444 and was fixed a couple hours ago.

The UTF-8 BOM problem with the ghostscript port was fixed in r28003 about a week ago.

Please "sudo port sync" and try again.
