One more ...

The only obvious (?) way I've found to track this down would be something like

port contents gdbm | \
 sed -n '/\/lib\//{s,lib/.*,lib,;s/^[ ]*/-L/;p;q;}'

This works for any port-installed package, e.g., replace gdbm with
pcre2 or whatever.

Is there a better way?  The full configure.ac entry would need to test
for the availability of the "port" command, etc.
