thanks fred. turns out wiping /opt/local didn’t help either. must be an issue that arose from using a custom kernel, followed by re-installing the 10.7.5 combo update. -i assumed would the combo update would have overwritten overwritten the kernels and anything else (it was just the mach_kernel that i replaced) that needed restoration.
but perhaps this caused an issue. will look into it. thanks.
