The variant "tkinter" is the default and the only one you
have installed: the other backends cannot work because
you haven't installed their dependencies yet (i.e. py25-cairo).

As for the recent version 2.5 of Tkinter, there is a working
patch which has been committed for the the py-tkinter port but
not yet for the py25-tkinter one
(http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/changeset/13929).

All the other problems with py25-gtk should have been solved
already.
