Hi John,
Unfortunately, same results/same log messages with this build.  Out of
desperation, I even did "sudo port select --set python python38"  (I had
previously just done --set python3 python38), but that didn't help.
It's a good question about the python path - unfortunately, I have no idea
how it is being set within the app itself.

Thanks again for trying.  LIkely, your build will still work for many users
that have a more comprehensive python installation via macports.

Steve
