If this manifests itself with an error while gnustep-base is built, then
the cause is likely that your darwinports tree and the darwinports  
programs
are out of sync. The GNUstep portfiles make use of a port group file,  
which
initially was installed by the gnustep-make package, but now seems to  
have
moved into the base tree.

So you either have the choice to update and reinstall the darwinports  
base
tree or you back up the GNUstep group to a version which installs the
necessary port group file. Skimming the change logs it looks like  
something
like
  cvs update -dP -D06/01/2006
should do the job.
