I have taken a look into MacPorts and I think I should invest some
time to update it. Here are the packages currently found by search
gnustep:
gnustep gnustep/gnustep 0.18.1 GNUstep
meta port
gnustep-back gnustep/gnustep-back 0.12.0 A
back-end component for the GNUstep GUI Library.
gnustep-base gnustep/gnustep-base 1.14.0 A
library of general-purpose Objective C objects.
gnustep-core gnustep/gnustep-core 0.18.1
GNUstep core / Startup package
gnustep-dl2 gnustep/gnustep-dl2 0.10.1
GNUstep Database Library 2 (GDL2)
gnustep-gui gnustep/gnustep-gui 0.12.0 A
library of graphical user interface Objective C classes
gnustep-make gnustep/gnustep-make 2.0.1
GNUstep makefile package
gnustep-make-cocoa gnustep/gnustep-make-cocoa 1.13.0
GNUstep makefile package for the Cocoa API
gnustep-make-docs gnustep/gnustep-make-docs 1.13.0
GNUstep makefile documentation
These are not the latest stable versions, but almost. So I think an
update is just changing some version numbers so that the latest stable
versions are downloaded.
But when looking into the portfiles, there are even more:

So, there is already quite a lot there! If we look e.g. at the PRICE
portfile it looks like:
# $Id: Portfile 30229 2007-10-22 23:01:24Z jmpp@macports.org $
PortSystem 1.0
PortGroup gnustep 1.0
name PRICE
version 0.8.1
platforms darwin
maintainers nomaintainer
homepage http://price.sourceforge.net/
description A high-quality image manipulation and enhancement
application.
long_description ${description}
master_sites sourceforge:price
checksums md5 f5a357f6fd93661f4bf778c388f07bc0
worksrcdir ${name}
This is a TCL script (http://guide.macports.org/#development).
More important is IMHO that there is no maintainer. The last author
has checked it in in Oct 2007.
So, someone has voluntarily crafted that - please notify yourself if
you read this list.
Now, when I try to install/update the full gnustep package, there
comes an error message:
MacBook-hns:PRICE hns$ sudo port install gnustep
Error: Unable to execute port: couldn't change working directory to "/
opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/
gnustep/Etoile": no such file or directory
MacBook-hns:PRICE hns$
That is because the sub-package has been renamed to Etoile-devel but
some dependency has not been tracked in some master file. I have
manually renamed this and now it has started fetching and compiling.
So, I will report if there are news...
