Comment (by gui_dos at macports.org):

 That's not the problem: "darwin" and "darwin 9" can both be present in the
 same portfile.
 [[BR]]

 The problem is that in the line
 {{{
 system "cd  ${destroot}${prefix}/lib;ln -s ${lib} ${liblink}"
 }}}

 ${lib} is the full path of the library, therefore the created link isn't
 relative.
 [[BR]]

 ${libname} should be used instead and its definition should use the "file
 tail" command,
 not the "file rootname", otherwise even liblink includes the full path
 since it is defined as
 "${libname}${libext}"
