Comment (by OrvGull):

 @timmr - If you just need to get it working, you can do the following
 rather convoluted method:
 {{{
 port install autoconf
 port extract bacula
 WORKDIR=`port work bacula`
 cd $WORKDIR/bacula-9.4.4
 }}}

 Fix {{{autoconf/libtool/libtool.m4}}} with the patch linked above. It's
 only two lines, so if you're not too comfortable with {{{patch}}} you can
 just edit the file by hand. Then:

 {{{
 touch autoconf/aclocal.m4
 ./configure --enable-client-only
 make configure
 }}}
 (Note the run of ./configure there is not the one that'll be used for the
 build; port will re-run it, so don't worry too much about setting
 configuration flags. We just need a valid config.status file or {{{make
 configure}}} will choke.)

 Now edit {{{configure}}} and put {{{BUILD_DIR=`PWD`}}} near the top. It's
 already in the file, but in the wrong place; the variable gets used before
 it's set, and the script fails.

 Finally:
 {{{
 port build bacula
 }}}

 If the build succeeds, you should be able to do {{{port install bacula}}}.

 I can't reasonably do this whole rigamarole on multiple workstations, so
 I'm hoping someone smarter than me comes up with a proper fix. ;)
