It's complaining because the code tried to run "port -v", but the
unit-test wasn't expecting it to do that.

"port -v" comes from the MacPorts support, which was accidentally
disabled for a couple of years but was recently reenabled. It may
contain bugs. In this case, it's called from "regenerate_cache" in
distro_impls.ml:493, but I'm not sure why we're updating the cache
anyway, since there are no package-implementations in the test case.
