Not to cause more flaming but to state what actually exists, a while back we taught Scons to be aware of an OSX way that paths are set. Namely, the files /etc/paths and all files in /etc/paths.d/ contain one path per line that gets added to the system path For finding executables. When X11 gets installed it adds /etc/paths.d/X11 and TexLive adds /etc/paths.d/TeX so that the new executables can be found.
So possibly you could add a file to /ect/paths/d so that the Macports executables can be found. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Rob Managan email managan at llnl.gov LLNL phone: 925-423-0903 P.O.
