That ebuild is wrong. For ppc-macos is calls ./configure instead of
econf, and I know why, because configure appears to hang in a loop if
you use econf. After I 'fixed' this problem make ran without problems
on Tiger for me.
I checked in my simplification/correction of the ebuild plus the patch
that simply removes Darwin5 support from configure, because it hangs on
Darwin8. I think it hangs on Darwin7 too, but since there is a separate
check for Darwin7 this is never tested. Darwin8 has POSIX compliance at
this point.
Let me know if it yields in any problems for you, Nick.

Specifically, dev-libs/libsigsegv-2.2 builds on 10.3 and does not on
10.4. A look at the PORTING file included with the source shows it
has not been tested on anything newer than Darwin 8.0.
This is an ebuild marked unstable, but keyworded and works on Panther
installs but not Tiger. It should not be keyworded for Tiger until
the problem is resolved.
${PORTDIR}/profiles/default-darwin/macos/10.3/package.mask is your
friend (it sucks, but currently that's all we have).
