The relevant part of the log:

make[1]: *** [install] Error 1

This happens because the Port's Makefile tries to create a link in ${SITELISP} without checking whether the directory exists. The problem is that SITELISP for the +emacs_app variant needs to be redefined to be in its application directory, not the default ${prefix}/share/emacs/site-lisp.

I can confirm the error when installing the emacs_app variant and that the attached patch fixes the issue.

Thanks for updating the port to install the latest version of ESS (in #42078) and for this fix.
