Comment (by egall@…):

 Replying to [comment:11 ryandesign@…]:
 > The value of `$PATH` on the command line is irrelevant; MacPorts does
 not use it; instead, MacPorts uses `binpath` as set in macports.conf.
 Certainly, removing /opt/local/bin from `binpath` would be a user error,
 and as it says in macports.conf, "Customizing binpath is unsupported and
 is intended for advanced users only", so let's assume the user didn't do
 that.

 I was referring to when the user tried running `pkg-config` manually in
 comment:5 above. I'm assuming that command was run as the user's regular
 account, and not as the `macports` user.
