 I don't know very much about tcl, but first, the problem is actually in
 "base". portload.tcl has:
 {{{
             exec $launchctl_path load -w $path
 }}}
 and {{{man n exec}}} says:
 {{{
        -ignorestderr
                     Stops the exec command from treating the  output  of
 mes- |
                     sages to the pipeline's standard error channel as an
 error |
                     case.
 }}}
 However this is a new option, and at least on Tiger, tcl doesn't have this
 option. Isn't it possible to require (or just allow) port to use the tcl
 version provided by MacPorts (after some bootstrap)?

 /opt/local/bin/port has:
 {{{
 exec /usr/bin/tclsh "$0" "$@"
 }}}
 Is there any reason to use /usr/bin/tclsh instead of just tclsh?

 FYI, about the stderr problem: http://www.tcl.tk/cgi-bin/tct/tip/267.html
