Is this the first port you've tried to install? It says it can't find make, which is provided by Xcode and is required to build any port with MacPorts. Have you installed Xcode 2.4.1? If not, you'll need to do that; get it from the Apple Developer Connection: http://developer.apple.com/tools/download/
