Comment (by kencu):

 mmm. Works here. I'm confused -- I don't see the explanation for your
 build failure at first look.
 {{{
 $ port -v installed subversion db46
 The following ports are currently installed:

 subversion has a listed dependency on db46

 Your main.log says you have db46 installed -- maybe there is something
 wrong with the installation? Do you have the files there?
 {{{
