It is almost always incorrect for a user to try to set the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to any value.

Could you explain in more detail exactly what you're trying to accomplish? Then maybe we can suggest the correct solution. You mentioned "SAGA GIS". Is this something available in MacPorts? If so, what is the port name, or, if it is not yet an official port, where can the portfile be found? Or is it something you're compiling manually? If so, how does this relate to MacPorts? Are you using MacPorts ports as dependencies?
