#14211 deals with issues building inkscape. You do not appear to be  
experiencing issues building inkscape, but issues configuring  
scrollkeeper.

scrollkeeper does declare a build dependency on perl5.8 so I'm not  
sure why perl wouldn't be on your system.

Is the perl5.8 port installed and activated? Is /opt/local/bin/perl  
on your system and does it work?
