Make sure you have both Xcode and the Command Line Tools installed, as per the MacPorts installation instructions.

Either /usr/include (provided by the Command Line Tools) is missing, or macosx_sdk_version is not set to the current OS version, or you're on 10.14 and the corresponding SDK is missing from your Xcode installation.
