Thank you everyone who has addressed my question.  I regret that the fixes do 
not seem to work.  Here is what I did:

1) I deleted all of macports and the ported software following the uninstall 
directions in macports documentation (the idea being to start as close as 
possible to my friend's computer that successfully installed FEniCS).

2) I reinstalled a new version macports and  installed only  what is needed by 
dorsal.  This failed because swig-python has a bug that doesn't install pcre.  
Porting pcre  and then swig-python fixes that problem.

I had the same problem yesterday and solved it in the same way.

3) I edited platforms/supported/snowleopard.platform and added

default 
LAPACKANDBLAS_DIR=/opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/088/Frameworks/mkl/Libraries/em64t

to try to get a good LAPACK and BLAS

I never tried this.

4) I edited packages/dolfin.package and dolfin-stable.package as suggested by 
Dr Ring and added

CONFOPTS="-DMETIS_LIBRARY=${INSTALL_PATH}/lib/libmetis.a"

5) I reinstalled a fresh version of FEniCS

6) I then got the following error message during the configuring of petsc

Thats odd because mpif.h exists in petsc's own directory structure but the 
location seems empty....

That's strange. Did you change any options in the platform file or the PETSc package file to add options to PETSc (like --download-hypre=yes).

As far as I understand, this is still broken on Mac in Dorsal so Mac users need to live without Hypre etc since it requires some communication problems between Fortran and MPI to be resolved...

7) So I  installed openmpi using macports (I need this for another project 
anyway).  I note that by this time there are metis libraries in /opt/local/lib 
and in ~/FEniCS/lib.  Then I remade a fresh version of FEniCS.  This time 
dorsal.sh completed without an obvious failure. I tried the poisson demo in 
python and got

So I regret that the suggested fixes don't seem to work.  The problem seems to 
center around petsc.

It might not solve your problems, but I suggest setting stable build to false in dorsal.cfg. I always use unstable. It usually works best (for me).
