[AMBER] AmberTools installation difficulties on Mac OSX

I'm trying to install AmberTools 1.5 on a Mac running OSX 10.6.8 with MacPorts gcc44 (selected using port select). I've been referring to the instructions at amberonmac.blogspot.com. I can get it to work if I use the -nopython flag ("./configure -macAccelerate -nopython gnu). Otherwise I get strange errors that seem related to python. In response to "which python", I get opt/local/bin/python, which doesn't seem to correspond to the python27 that I installed using MacPorts. I can't figure out how to force the system to use the python2.7. Or maybe I don't need to, and will be okay with mmpbsa.py installed separately? If so, should I run AT_Amber11.py before installing Amber 11? I don't get a message with the instructions to do that when AmberTools finishes. I have trouble installing Amber 11 either way, unfortunately. I can't help but wonder if the problem is related to the python version being used. I would appreciate any information you can provide. Thanks.
