 This is a duplicate of this bug: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/28049

 Only reason I didn't post there is because it was incorrectly closed.

 I had the exact same issue (even the output of pango failing to build
 is/was the exact same as mine, and the solution was identical, though I
 still have gdk-pixbuf2 built for libpng12 atm), basically I had several
 libraries that were of the newest versions, but have still been built for
 libpng12. Upon upgrading, these versions were left intact and not re-built
 for libpng14, causing anything that depended on something (like cairo)
 built for libpng12 to fail. I suggest integrating the functionality of the
 script found in the bug provided above into macports itself, so that
 checks may be made and old libraries rebuilt when necessary.

 Regards
