Comment (by jmroot):

 Distfiles are mirrored for a port when it is built on the buildbot, which
 happens when an update is pushed to the master branch of macports-ports.
 It's expected that there will be no distfiles mirrored for versions that
 don't exist in the official ports tree. That doesn't prevent fetching the
 distfiles from the master_sites specified in the Portfile (which may use
 defaults specified in e.g. the python portgroup). In fact, if fetching is
 failing locally, it's likely that mirroring will also fail, because it
 uses the same mechanism.
