I was recently having difficulties building some ports on my MacBook Pro, but no problems building the same programs on my Mac Pro. (There were problems with the paths when building ports on the laptop.) Both machines have the same versions of Leopard, Xcode, MacPorts, etc. A difference is that when I upgraded from Tiger to Leopard on my Mac Pro, I erased and did a fresh install. On my MacBook Pro, I upgraded from Tiger to Leopard, installing over the previous OS and not deleting a lot of stuff. This past weekend, I removed the entire MacPorts tree and all the other files listed in the MacPorts Guide (and on Trac), and reinstalled MacPorts on my laptop, and I still couldn't build everything I wanted. So, I formatted the laptop hard drive, reinstalled Leopard and I haven't had any problems installing any port. I spent a fair amount of time looking to see what was going on, but could not find the cause. Maybe this issue parallels your two machines?
