Just to clarify, the attached bitcoind_main.log is the main.log file from the build attempt before selecting any db version. The attached bitcoind_main_after_select.log is the main.log file from the build attempt after running port select --set db db48. The attached bitcoind_config_after_select.log is the config.log from that same post-select attempt. My apologies for any confusion.

Okay, I think I understand. First (as described above), unless a version of Berkeley DB is port selected, configuration fails. Second, even if one is port selected, configuration fails for prefix builds, because it can't find Boost. That second issue is remedied by adding --with-boost=[[PREFIX]] to ./configure (which should be harmless for default installations).
I'm attaching a Portfile patch that addresses only the second issue. The first remains (I do not know the preferred way to properly address that).

Patch to address the second of two issues identified in this ticket.

This is intended as a search-engine friendly comment to highlight the errors seen in both cases (for anyone coming in behind me who is experiencing similar issues):
The first error emitted by configure (can't find dbXX) is:
... :info:configure checking for main in -ldb_cxx... no :info:configure configure: error: libdb_cxx missing ...
The second error emitted by configure (can't find boost) is:
... :info:configure checking whether the Boost::System library is available... yes :info:configure configure: error: Could not find a version of the library! ...
My apologies for the spam. (I usually put these in the description or the first comment.)

Since port bitcoin is now at version >0.9 is this issue still actual?

Yes, bitcoin-0.9.1 appears to be similarly affected with respect to the boost libraries (log attached).

bitcoind is basically obsolete at this point: it should be made a synonym for
osx$ port install bitcoin +daemon
finance/bitcoin-0.9.2.1 has recently been added in r124023. Please check if your problem remains.

Opened #44693 to cover the same issue in bitcoin 0.9.2.1.
FYI, if it helps, I have both db46 and db48 installed already, but they put their libraries in
[[PREFIX]]/lib/db{46,48}/...(respectively), neither of which appear to be searched by config.If I do (e.g.,)
port select --set db db48 && port install bitcoind, then config finds them (but fails on checking the boostlib version), but this seems like it probably shouldn't be a build requirement.
