We can't tell for certain without knowing what your environment looks like,
but it is very likely that your replacement libraries are shadowing some
standard function in a way that breaks MacPorts (and may affect other OS X
native software although perhaps not as drastically). There are some
debugging DYLD_ variables you can set to show what is getting bound from
where, but without knowing what's in the libraries you have been forcing it
to use we can't even guess.
