Did you read the error msg? Here's what it says:

><snip>
>configure: error: *** pkg-config too old; version 0.14 or better required.
><snip>

It means, you need to update your system first. The current pkgconfig is 
0.15 in the ports. Here's the list that what you need to do following:

1) Update the ports tree by CVSup.
2) Install portupgrade from sysutils/portupgrade.
3) Run "pkgdb -F" to clean/fix your depencies.
4) Run "portupgrade -ra" to update your stuff what you have installed.
5) Go back to the place where you want to install by "make install".

These day, it's best to use portupgrade first, before you touch the ports. 
:-)

Cheers,
Mezz
