New description:

 In Summer 2011, python ports were merged into a single portgroup and the
 site-packages folder for python26 was moved (see wiki:Python). However,
 gnuradio 3.3.0 and all of its component ports (gnuradio-wxgui, etc.) still
 install to the old location, /opt/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/,
 where the python interpreter cannot find them. The correct site-packages
 folder, per the wiki link above, is
 /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6
 /site-packages.

 Presumably the fix needs to happen in the Portfile, which I suspect is
 hardcoded for the old destination. The correct behavior would be declaring
 the python portgroup and then using the python.pkgd variable, which will
 always point to the correct site-packages. I can't for the life of me
 figure out where the gnuradio Portfile is stored to go look at this
 myself.

 Adding /opt/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/ to the PYTHONPATH
 environment variable functions as a workaround.

 The command `port file gnuradio` will show you.

 Michael, if you need to make a change to gnuradio and increase its
 revision to fix this, could you take the opportunity to make gnuradio
 install into an unversioned docdir, and make python27 the default?
