Comment:

 Emacs.app is relocatable while /opt/local/bin/emacs is not, and you should
 not separate the Emacs binary from other data files, because the binary
 could not find them based on the relative paths. How about linking the
 whole app and invoking the binary? I mean:

 {{{
 $ ln -s /Applications/MacPorts/Emacs.app /tmp/e
 $ /tmp/e/Contents/MacOS/Emacs
 }}}
