This directory comes from g-wrap.  You're not getting g-wrap installed
properly.

THIS means you don't have GUILE installed.   Make sure you have
guile-1.6 installed, too.

Indeed, it is with macports.  You might try removing all your macports
and just re-installing from scratch.  I don't know of a good way to
do that, I'm afraid.
