Comment(by oddsimons at gmail.com):

 The install script needs to create the directory for the log file, so try
 this manually and see if that fixes it for you as well:

 {{{
 > sudo mkdir -p /opt/local/var/log/couchdb/
 > /opt/local/bin/couchdb
 Apache CouchDB 0.8.1-incubating (LogLevel=info)
 Apache CouchDB is starting.

 Apache CouchDB has started. Time to relax.
 }}}

 The same directory creation is missing from the `couchdb-devel` version as
 well. Both work fine once the log directory is created.
