Comment (by ralf at fimaluka.org):

 A (temporary) workaround: I installed gmake through MacPorts, made a
 symlink in /opt/local/bin from gmake to make, made sure that
 /opt/local/bin was first in PATH and also set the environment variable
 MAKE=gmake. Using these kludges I was able to build boost +python25
 without trouble. I need to investigate further, whether a simple
 MAKE=gmake can be used to solve this issue (without reverting to
 symlinking).
