Comment:

 It's odd that libxml2 is installing things into /opt/local/man for you. It
 correctly installs its manpages into /opt/local/share/man on my system. If
 libxml2 is getting that wrong for you, maybe it's not installing its
 libraries properly either, which might explain why postgresql83 can't find
 the right version.

 Do you have anything in /usr/local or /sw? If so, remove or rename
 /usr/local and /sw, uninstall libxml2, reinstall it, and then try
 postgresql83 again, after cleaning its work area.

 {{{
 sudo port -f uninstall libxml2
 sudo port clean --work libxml2
 sudo port install libxml2
 sudo port clean --work postgresql83
 sudo port install postgresql83
 }}}
