Comment (by kencu):

 pulling unmirrored distfiles from python sources is especially sensitive
 to older curl versions that macports may be built against.

 I currently have to build macports sgainst a newer libcurl on all systems
 up to 10.14 for full functionality.

 see long discussion with workarounds here:
