Probably relevant that it hasn't identified your operating system above because:

extraconf.h:34:24: error: macro names must be identifiers
extraconf.h:41:10: error: macro names must be identifiers

​Line 34 is:

#define @OS_NAME@               1

​Line 41 is:

#define @OS_FLAVOUR@ 1

I presume those placeholders didn't get replaced with something valid on your system.

I see you are on Mac OS X 10.6 ppc. From build logs on Mac OS X 10.6 x86_64 you should be seeing something more like:

SUMMARY

               System:  Darwin-10.8.0
              OS nick:  DARWIN_10
              OS type:  unix

Version 2.00 is available and includes several fixes I submitted and I should update the port but these placeholders are still there in 2.00 so it may not improve on this problem.
