Your aclocal has the ac-dir configured to /opt/local/share/aclocal already, which means it should already be searching that directory for pkg.m4. If it's not, then it either a bug in aclocal or (more likely) a bug in the MacPorts version of aclocal. In either case, I suggest just adding ACLOCAL_PATH to your own environment, or fixing MacPorts to not be broken.
