There's no maintainer for postgis,

so I'll ask, should these be listed as dependencies of the port?
Warning: Target configure has an undeclared dependency on libiconv Warning: Target build has an undeclared dependency on openssl Warning: Target build has an undeclared dependency on perl5.8 Warning: Target build has an undeclared dependency on zlib
They maybe should be. The trace mode dependency checking isn't always able to perfectly determine if a dependency is real or not, though, so it's possible that it's not important. One thing to do would be to check (perhaps with 'otool -L') and see if any of the postgis binary files link against one of those libraries or not. Another thing to check would be to determine if you can prevent the build from trying to look for/make use of those libraries (by passing a --no-ssl flag to configure, for instance).
Is the below a problem?
DEBUG: Target configure has no traceable dependency on proj
It may or may not be.
It's listed in the "configure.args" for the portfile, what triggered the warning?
Trace mode didn't detect files installed by that port to be used. That doesn't necessarily mean that it's not a valid dependency (but it is a good hint). -- Daniel J.
