That's what "Perl from other sources may or may not work and will regardless require modifying Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/etc/gnucash/environment to set the perl path and @INC so that GnuCash can find the right F::Q. If you insist on that you're on your own." is about.
The issue is that when you launch from Finder there's no shell so GnuCash can't see your MacPorts environment changes. Try launching GnuCash from a shell window that does have the MacPorts environment.
