I'm affraid you are right. I had already seen that the Portfile mentioned:
if {${os.major} < 9} {
    pre-fetch {
        return -code error "PyObjC 2.0 requires Mac OS X 10.5"
    }
}

But being ON 10.5 I assumed it would work.
So I also tried to install the py-pyobjc version:
sudo port install py-pyobjc
--->  Computing dependencies for py-pyobjc
--->  Fetching py-pyobjc
Error: Target org.macports.fetch returned: PyObjC 1.4 is for Mac OS X 10.4
and lower. On 10.5, use py-pyobjc2 instead.
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

As that one "sensed" it was on 10.5 instead of 10.4, I (again) assumed that
objc2 could also "sense" that it was on 10.5 despite the deployment setting
and the 10.4u.sdk.  So I switched back to py-pyobjc2.

On your reply I also tried to change the macports.conf and set the
deployment target to 10.5 and the SDK to 10.5 as well.
But again: "distutils.errors.DistutilsPlatformError:
$MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET mismatch: now "10.5" but "10.4" during configure"

So, I'm affraid I'm in some dead-lock.
