The developers of evolution-data-server apparently never contemplated 
the MacPorts upgrade scenario, that is, building a new copy
while the old copy is still installed -- because of the way the link 
command is ordered, it will link against the old libraries in preference
to the new ones if they exist. 

So instead of upgrading evolution-data-server  try this

sudo port deactivate evolution-data-server
sudo port install evolution-data-server

It's a work around but it may help.  If not please file a ticket.
