I have no idea where that source tree came from.
From your report, it seems it is neither up-to-date nor self-consistent.

The amiga (and atari and apollo) terminals and associated code have
been entirely removed from the 4.5 source tree.  You can confirm
this by running
	cd gnuplot; grep -Ril amiga .

I suggest that you download the source from SourceForge, which is
the only official distribution site.  You might also want
to send a note to whoever is maintaining that github mirror to point
out that they have a problem.  That is assuming, of course, that the
problem came from the source itself and not from some version
incompatibility introduced by macports.   
Did you run ./prepare; ./configure ?
