I had the same problem as you, and I had submitted a patch here:

that another person has also submitted a similar patch:

either of them work for you.
Let us hope that someone eventually notices :-)

Thank you very much for sending me these links. I downloaded the Portfile posted on trac,

Then you must be talking about ticket 14446, as ticket 14344 has a diff attached, not a complete Portfile.

put it in the auctex directory under /opt/local/var/macports/ sources/... in place of the existing Portfile. Then I tried to install auctex and got this message:

camus:~ bxf4$ sudo port install auctex
Portfile changed since last build; discarding previous state.
--->  Fetching emacs
---> Attempting to fetch emacs-22.2.tar.gz from http://ftp.gnu.org/ gnu/emacs
^C

So, it detected the new portfile, but still tried to download emacs-22. If anyone has the patience to tell me what I'm not doing, I'd appreciate. Thanks for your time.

The notes in ticket 14446 say a new variant "emacs_app" was added. So, if you want to auctex use emacs-app instead of emacs, you should select the emacs_app variant:

sudo port install auctex +emacs_app
