Welcome to MacPorts!

As Jyrki said, you probably want the wxWidgets port instead of the  
wxWidgets-devel port. The former is at version 2.8.10 while the  
latter is currently the older 2.8.10-rc2. Generally, "-devel" ports  
are development versions while non-devel ports are stable versions.

wxWidgets 2.8.10 installs these files on my system:

   /opt/local/lib/libwx_macu_ogl-2.8.0.6.0.dylib
   /opt/local/lib/libwx_macu_ogl-2.8.0.dylib
   /opt/local/lib/libwx_macu_ogl-2.8.dylib
