        port installed | grep wx

yields

        py26-wxpython @2.8.10.1_0+gtk (active)
        wxWidgets-python @2.8.12.0_2+gtk (active)

I do suffer from the same problem as identified in the post at 
http://editra.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=75  …  graphics hadn't been enabled 
(see between === and ===).

I cannot however, in my output, see (between === and === ) anything named like 
the "wxgtk 2.8.4" which the poster identified as part of his solution, unless 
we are talking

        wxWidgets-python @2.8.12.0_2+gtk

which is newer than what the poster had described:

        I downloaded wxgtk 2.8.4
        Recompiled it with "--enable-graphics_ctx" options. 
        then I recompiled wxPython and, Presto! Editra is now fully working 

        You ware right, I had "#define wxUSE_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT 0" before I 
recompiled wxGtk

==========================
        wx.GraphicsContext … " is implemented with the gtk2 version of 
wxPython2.8"

        … cairo is also needed, which I have:
                port installed | grep cairo
                        --> 
                        cairo @1.12.14_0+x11 (active)
                        gnuplot @4.6.3_0+aquaterm+luaterm+pangocairo+x11 
(active)

        … and that it ought to not be necessary to force invoke
                --enable-graphics_ctx

so I followed the suggested queries for extra information (those that I could) 
and I got

        wx-config --version-full
                -->
                2.8.12.0

        wx-config --selected-config
                -->
                gtk2-unicode-release-2.8

        wx-config --libs
                --> 
                -L/opt/local/lib
                -L/opt/local/lib -arch x86_64
                -L/opt/local/lib
                -framework IOKit
                -framework CoreServices
                -framework System
                -framework ApplicationServices
                -lwx_gtk2u-2.8

        wx-config --cppflags
                -->
                -I/opt/local/lib/wx/include/gtk2-unicode-release-2.8
                -I/opt/local/include/wx-2.8
                -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64
                -D_LARGE_FILES
                -D__WXGTK__

The file 'setup.h' was findable via

        cd $(wx-config --prefix)
                -->
                /opt/local

        cd lib/wx/include/gtk2-YOUR_INSTALLED_VERSION/wx re-expressed as
=       cd lib/wx/include/gtk2-unicode-release-2.8/wx

with contained lines of interest

        #ifndef wxUSE_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT
        #define wxUSE_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT 0
        #endif
