This sounds pretty impractical.  Until recently, I believe pdf2svg was
not available through macports.  What is one recommended to do?

Software installed in /usr/local can and often does interfere with software installed using MacPorts. The only solution at this time is not to have software installed in /usr/local.

If software you need is not available via MacPorts, file port request tickets, or better yet, write ports and submit them. Portfiles are not hard to write, and the process is described in the Guide.
