 On a brand new MacPorts 1.9.0 beta 1 installation, installed from the disk
 image, on Snow Leopard 10.6.3 with Xcode 3.2.2, first thing I tried to do
 was selfupdate, and I got:

 {{{
 port registry doesn't exist at
 "/opt/local/var/macports/registry/registry.db" and couldn't write to this
 location
     while executing
 "registry::open $db_path"
     (procedure "mportinit" line 533)
     invoked from within
 "mportinit ui_options global_options global_variations"
 }}}

 `mkdir /opt/local/var/macports/registry` fixed it.
