Are you running MacPorts 2.2.1 or MacPorts trunk?

The check that prints this warning is
  http://trac.macports.org/browser/tags/release_2_2_1/base/src/port1.0/portutil.tcl?marks=3085-3088#L3080
So it seems /usr/bin/make does not exist on your system, which suggests the command line tools are not correctly installed. Please check whether /usr/bin/make is present and working.
