 Replying to [comment:1 ryandesign@…]:
 > You can test whether this is the cause and solution by editing the py-
 pygtk portfile and changing occurrences of "file link -symbolic A B" to
 "ln -s B A". Note that the order of the arguments must be reversed. I'll
 test it myself in a moment, once my Leopard machine finishes what it's
 doing.

 Yes, this works. See attachment.

 However, an even better solution is to use the ${python.prefix} variable,
 which is based on ${frameworks_dir}. Users are able to change
 frameworks_dir at MacPorts configure time; it does not necessarily have to
 be ${prefix}/Library/Frameworks so a relative symlink cannot be used.
 Fixed in r100357. Revision increased so that any users with non-default
 frameworks_dir will have a correct symlink.
