Comment:

 There are several problems with the port as submitted.

  * The master_sites should just be "sourceforge" (efficiency issue; this
 way you get all the sourceforge mirrors instead of just the one you
 specified).
  * The distfiles line should be replaced with "distname
 ${name}${version}-src" (stylistic issue).
  * configure.args should not include --prefix=${prefix} (redundancy issue;
 MacPorts already puts --prefix=${prefix} in configure.pre_args for you).
  * The remaining configure args should use ${prefix} instead of /opt/local
 (accuracy issue; MacPorts may be in a different prefix).
  * I assume the entire pre-build block can be deleted; it's not
 appropriate for a port to call the port command to build another port.
 That's what dependencies are for, which this port already declares
 sufficiently.
  * The mixture of tabs and spaces should be replaced with all spaces
 (stylistic issue).
  * There should be an $Id$ line at the top (stylistic issue).

 I'll try fixing these issues and submitting a new port.
