Actually, try doing this:
sudo port -p uninstall xsb @3.0.1+_0/
(add a slash to the end of the version number). This disambiguates
the version from any variants for the port. I'm not sure it'll
work, since I'm still not sure I know where the problem is, but
it's worth a try.
The problem seems to be that MacPorts is not properly escaping
version strings. The "3.0.1+" version comes from the software that
the Portfile gets from CVS. This leads me to use the same version
name on the portfile, otherwise the symbolic link that is created on
the post-destroot phase would be broken. The software builds without
trouble but fails on activation with the same dreaded error:

Thanks for your help,
