I'm not certain this is the only thing wrong, but you definitely have things in /usr/local that are interfering with the build. You should remove or rename /usr/local, clean the affected port, and try again.

sudo mv /usr/local /usr/local-off
sudo port clean help2man

This may be a duplicate of #32171. Does this problem still occur now that that's fixed? (Assuming removing /usr/local from the equation didn't help.)

Assuming duplicate.
