I've committed the port in r94457. I had to make many changes to your Portfile to get it to work right; here are some suggestions for next time:
You should test your ports before you submit them. This one contained a syntax error: the first checksum line did not end with a backslash. To test your Portfile, use the terminal to "cd" to the directory the Portfile is in and run "sudo port install" (without specifying a port name).
Fetching the distfile failed. I had to adjust the master_sites line to fix that, and also add "use_bzip2 yes" since this project distributes a .tar.bz2 file, not a .tar.gz file.
"port lint" revealed that the Portfile was missing the required "platforms" variable, so I added it with the usual value of "darwin". It also showed no license was set; I added "license ISC" according to the project's homepage and the LICENSE file the distribution contains.
I added the configure.arg "--disable-silent-rules" so that we can see what's actually going on while compiling (if we look in the log or with the debug switch).
I added a post-destroot block to install the documentation files.
"port livecheck" didn't produce a result so I fixed it by adding a livecheck.regex similar to the one I often add to SourceForge-hosted ports.
You used our standard modeline, which states that the Portfile is formatted with spaces for indentation at 4 spaces per indent, but it was actually indented with tabs at 8 spaces per indent. I reformatted the Portfile using spaces at 4 spaces per indent to conform to the modeline.
