Github version is just code files and does not contain files for Unix build which was part of the tarball created by Alvarez. Digging into the issue I came across a very old ticket for aacgain reported by Ryan at https://trac.macports.org/ticket/25942. Looks like someone had created the tarball for 1.9 and hosted it one their own website since 'Alvarez' didn't create the official 1.9 tarball yet. But the port was never updated. -- Jackson Isaac
