Welcome to MacPorts!

I did find some occurrences of this error in a Google search. One  
suggested that you might be using an old version of Xcode. If you do  
not have Xcode 2.5, upgrade to Xcode 2.5 and try again, making sure  
to clean the port first (sudo port clean libtheora). Let us know if  
that fixes it; if it does, we can modify the port to print a warning  
if Xcode < 2.5 is used.
