Good to know, as of r42848 macports.org and macosforge.org should work for
svn, and macports.org and darwinports.org for rsync (the latter just in
case, since rsync.darwinports.org is still just CNAME'd to
rsync.macosforge.org).  It would appear that rsync.macosforge.org was never
used in sources.conf, so hopefully nobody uses that.

Ah, so this machine is sharing a sources.conf between multiple versions of
MacPorts, at least one being prior to 1.7b1 then?  I wonder if we should
update base to ignore unknown tags, maybe just warning, so this won't be an
issue in the future?
