AFAIU this is to be expected: Binaries created with MacPorts are not intended to be backwards-compatible with older versions of OS X - my own test packages built on Lion didn't launch on 64bit Snow Leopard either. According to Michael it's due to the default SDK configured and used by MacPorts:

I think it might be possible to build a package from Lion that runs on older machines, but it requires that everything (all the macports dependencies) be build against the Snow Leopard sdk instead of the default Lion one. I had some problems trying this in the past and just found it easier to use an older machine for the builds.
The building environment based on GTK-OSX [1] handles this differently, but there is no moduleset for inkscape available (personally, I haven't yet tried to use it for inkscape builds since I wouldn't know how to handle dependencies like e.g. boost with jhbuild).
