It looks to me like the patch itself worked, but something else got crazy. I haven't seen this, so I don't know other than suggesting clean and then doing it again.

You were in the port's temporary work directory when you started the port command.


--->  Building goffice
--->  Staging goffice into destroot
--->  Installing goffice @0.6.6_0
--->  Activating goffice @0.6.6_0
--->  Cleaning goffice

The clean phase removes the work directory.

When MacPorts has finished what it was doing, it tries to go back to the directory you were in when you started the command, and gets confused and prints the above (long) error if that directory no longer exists. Aside from looking scary, it's harmless, though, and the command you ran should have completed normally. The issue is filed here:
