There really isn't a "Macports build". Macports just downloads the source tarball and compiles it locally. It's only doing three things compared to compiling it yourself: update checking, dependency tracking, and applying some patches for problems that haven't been addressed upstream yet.
Ah, I'm sorry for my complete misunderstanding of what macports is then :-) I was under the impression that it was something like Cygwin for Windows; a collection of tools and libraries ported to Mac OS and being a distinct 'environment'.
One of the patches they have for Python 3.2 fixes something in the Makefile and it appears to have something to do with the stuff being passed to libtool. Not sure if it's addresses your problem or not, but it couldn't hurt to try it. . http://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/lang/python32/files/patch-Makefile.pre.in.diff
Thanks for the pointer Benjamin. Unfortunately, applying this patch didn't make it fly. Gonna have to look further :)
