/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework is the installation location for 
the Pythons provided by python.org binary installers.  They will happily 
co-exist with MacPorts- and Apple-provided Pythons.  That said, 2.7.0 is 
quite old, so consider upgrading it or deleting it if you are now just 
going to be using a MacPorts-based Python 2.7.
