 Irrelevant. That's MacPorts trying to download pre-compiled binaries.
 Since apparently none exist for this port, it then tries to compile the
 source. ''That'' then fails, and ''that's'' the problem we need to
 investigate.

 > Please let me know what I can do to solve the problem. Thanks a lot! :-)

 The log you attached says:

 {{{
 :info:configure configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs.
 :info:configure If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.
 :info:configure See `config.log' for more details
 }}}

 So why can't you run C compiled programs? Have you installed the Xcode
 command line tools? See wiki:FAQ#missingxcode. What does the config.log
 say?
