Comment:

 So, the problem is that you cannot hand-compile php's mcrypt extension
 using libmcrypt in MacPorts? Ok, I'm not sure why that would be, and I'm
 assigning the ticket to the maintainer of libmcrypt. But I'm not sure
 there's much motivation to look into this issue, since the MacPorts php5
 port has (until today) included support for mcrypt; as of today, that
 support has been moved to the separate php5-mcrypt port. Are you able to
 use these ok? Are these not sufficient?

 I note above that you are instructing the configure script to look for
 things both in MacPorts' /opt/local prefix and in /usr/local. Note that
 the use of MacPorts while anything is installed in /usr/local in
 problematic and therefore unsupported. I recommend you remove what's in
 /usr/local and just use MacPorts to install the software you need.
