Does that mean i must use md5 or can I, as you suggest, upgrade to the rmd160 and sha256 hashes by generating them using openssl like below? Once I have those hashes I could then just include them in the port as checksums rather than the md5, sha1, and rmd160.

It's much easier to put what checksums you're after in the Portfile and letting MacPorts tell you how they should be set:
 * place checksums md5 a\ sha1 b\ rmd160 c\ sha256 d
 * sudo port -v checksums
