 So the problems are:

 The Portfile specifies that we want python to be /opt/local/bin/python2.4,
 but the configure script appears to ignore this and use the command
 /opt/local/bin/python, or just python, which it then discovers happens to
 be version 2.7 (probably because that's what you've selected with "`sudo
 port select python`"). Then it can't make this work ("`No working Python
 interpreter found`"), falls back to nonsensical defaults ("`include path:
 "/opt/local/Headers"`"), and then can't find the files it needs
 ("`pyconfig.h: No such file or directory`").
