Sorry, I see that you are well aware of the py-pil ->py-Pillow switch.

I just wonder I if is worth dealing too much with these unmaintained zope ports too much. These are probably broken for a while and nobody cared. Do we have a well-defined process/strategy to discontinue such bit rot?
Anyway, I might have a look into it some time but it is not top priority for the moment.
PIL - Pillow: Well that's where I came across this issue ;-) and some of the other zope ports seem to be rotten as well, looking into the details.

If the port does not build and has not for a long time, it can simply be deleted. Otherwise, this is mentioned in the guide.

I would try to fix it by switching to python 2.7 and also py-Pillow - so use py27-Pillow instead of py26-pil. You might have to give it a configure argument/env variable to point to the Macports version. You should check for an update in the source code. Although the homepage looks fishy to me when I went to it.
