Do what it says:

-> sudo port install expat +universal

There's probably more ports that need to be installed that way. If it
gives you another filename (like /opt/local/lib/libexpat.dylib), just run:

-> port provides <filename>

where <filename> is the name of the file, and it will tell you which
port provides that file. Then you can install it +universal with:

-> sudo port install <portname> +universal

where <portname> is the name of the port that 'port provides' told you
provides <filename>.

You don't want that version anyway. It's over a year old.

Nothing's wrong with wine-devel, you just need to install some ports
+universal to get it to work on Snow Leopard. (I take it you're on SL,
right?)
