Comment(by rdpoor@…):

 And, for whatever else it's worth, a manual call to curl worked without
 error:

 It's a workaround, though it's a pity that it's required for all the other
 ImageMagick dependencies (expat fontconfig freetype zlib libiconv gperf
 jpeg libpng libxml2 pkgconfig tiff) -- that's supposed to be port's job,
 nu?
