Port itself doesn't call python. Perhaps you're installing a piece of software that runs python as part of its build process?

I am running a huge rebuild of my installed ports (evidently a lot of stuff depends on dbus-glib) and I keep getting an error (pops in the FInder/Aqua) that python has crashed. I'm not running python so I assume it's part of the rebuilding (though I know MacPorts uses tcl).
It's calling the MacPorts python, not the system one, further convincing me it's part of the port rebuilding.
