You know, I just tried

sudo port install redland-bindings +php

and it worked. So maybe you just need to tell it what bindings you  
want. See the available bindings by running

port variants redland-bindings


If that works, great, but you should still file a bug in Trac so that  
the port can be fixed. (It should print a message advising users that  
they must select at least one variant; it shouldn't just fail with a  
cryptic error as it currently does.)
