Comment (by istlota@…):

 I experienced a similar problem using Snow Leopard on a 2007 Macbook. A
 couple of months or so ago, I port installed vtk5 without any variants.
 That built fine. But, after that, I attempted to port install py27-mayavi
 and that failed with a message suggesting some problem with vtk5. I had
 other things to do which kept me occupied until I attempted 'port install
 py27-mayavi' again today with same problem. I then did a 'port install
 vtk5 +python27'. That took a while to build, finally aborting with a
 similar main.log except 'Built target vtkIOTCL' stopped at 51% for me
 instead of 52% as it did for dailforkaushik. I then did a 'port uninstall
 vtk5', followed by 'sudo port selfupdate' , and 'sudo port uninstall
 inactive', which all worked. But when I attempted 'sudo port clean all',
 it failed indicating it could not open port py27-usb or change to its
 working directory. I will attach the main.log for the 'port install vtk5
 +python27' failure.
