Comment:

 It looks like you have a copy of ncurses installed via Fink. Having both
 Fink and MacPorts installed simultaneously is not supported, because it
 causes problems like this where a port being built by one will pick up an
 incompatible dependency from the other.

 That said, if you didn't do a selfupdate within the last 12 hours you
 might try doing so and then trying to build emacs again. I recently made a
 change that may help (r81667). Even if emacs builds, however, you're
 likely to run into similar problems with other ports.
