What failed was building ghostscript-gnu, one of the other ports on
which gnucash depends.  The gnucash port itself did not install
anything; the ports system is careful about not installing a port
unless that port built properly.

So the only thing you need to worry about is why ghostscript didn't
build for you.  It's building properly for me; did you set any
options, or change the driver configuration?  [The file that's failing
to build for you doesn't exist in my build directory.]
