I can definitely say yes to all except PG. If I have a chance, I'll try to install William's PGIS over the next few weeks and let you know.
I set the path in .bash_profile set as you suggested ("export GRASS_PYTHON=/usr/bin/pythonw2.7"), and that did the trick--Grass 7 is now running on my Mac with OS X 10.8.5. Thank you all VERY much for your help.
For the future, I would love to know whether it is possible to install the following combination in Mavericks, using the KyngChaos builds:
--PostgreSQL with PostGIS (postGIS is critical to me)
--GRASS 7
--QGIS
Thanks again,
John

Sounds like the Macports python is loading the system python global site-packages (/Library/Python). Bad form really, because you can't expect modules to work between different builds of python, even if they're the same version. Maybe there is some option in Macports python to exclude the system site-packages.
To get GRASS to always use the system python, just set GRASS_PYTHON (you can set this in your .bash_profile):
export GRASS_PYTHON=/usr/bin/pythonw2.7
The version is important because of the way GRASS forces 32bit.
