unfortunately 0.4.3 hasn't got into macports yet... we will buzz the
maintainer...

Let's try to do it "from source" way, which might benefit you in the
long run if we discover/fix some bugs you would be ready to run it
fixed.

just
sudo port install git-core

git clone git://git.debian.org/git/pkg-exppsy/pymvpa.git

cd pymvpa
make

Last time I've tried it on an OS X system with ports it worked just
fine (since you have already installed all dependencies)

Then adjust your PYTHONPATH :

export PYTHONPATH=$PWD:$PYTHONPATH

If you would prefer to stick to this version -- you better remove older
version from ports so there is never confusion whenever you forget to
tune up your PYTHONPATH to point to git repository

seems like it... so change occurred between the releases...
unfortunately I cannot deduce which change mentioned in the changelog
could be relevant... it would be great if you have tried freshier
release ;)
