The clue is that it didn't find the redland-config program in your PATH
while building the redland bindings.  When you build redland, and 'make
install', redland-config should be installed to PREFIX/bin dir.  Add that to
your PATH when building the bindings, and it should go better.

These errors are probably because somehow the redland shared libraries are
not installed into the default place that OSX looks for.  You can either put
them in the standard place or use the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to set it
to a non-standard path.  See 'man dyld' for info.

In this case maybe:
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib
