Description
mpbb did not try to build any port for a recent commit: https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-10.13_x86_64-watcher/builds/4667 (same for other macOS versions)
Although mpbb list-subports failed, the overall build was successful. We need to fix this in order to detect such failures.
The error for list-subports was:
$ ./mpbb list-subports gnuradio ./mpbb: error: None of the specified ports were found in the port index. ./mpbb: error: `list-subports' failed to run successfully
The problem was caused by gnuradio, which appears to have a circular dependency somewhere:
$ /opt/local/bin/port-tclsh ./tools/sort-with-subports.tcl gnuradio |& head
too many nested evaluations (infinite loop?)
(procedure "process_port_deps" line 1)
invoked from within
"process_port_deps $portdep portdeps portlist"
(procedure "process_port_deps" line 7)
invoked from within

The circular dependency was removed in [ebb1a0c497826d48ca82c9dba42368dff5731f48/macports-ports], so to reproduce this you need to use an older commit.
