xfig crashes when accessing the menu bar

[kurtjaeke@…]

When accessing the menu bar in xfig, it will stay empty (i.e., no text). One more click, and xfig crashes, leaving this stack trace:

Is your ports tree up to date? This problem was bug #12044 which has been resolved a couple days ago. Try "sudo port selfupdate" and then "sudo port clean --work xfig" and finally "sudo port install xfig"

Assigning to maintainer of xfig.

This clearly is #12044.

Yeah, but I can't test it. Installing gives me this:

$sudo port install xfig
--->  Activating xfig 3.2.5_2
Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults already exists and does not belong to a registered port.  Unable to activate port xfig.
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

I'll file another one.
