Hi Rich!
Why don't you ask the maintainer who built the macport?!
Why don't you try to to figure out with "WHAT" kind of tools they have 
built the mac port and "WHERE" to get them either. And ask him also how 
to set the flags to build the 64bit edition.

Then you don't have to be afraid of any prebuild mac port editions. This 
is how I would do it.
