Comment(by uv@…):

 This seems to me to be a permission issue. port install apache-ivy should
 run as root. However, it seems it is doing some 'privilege de-esculation',
 i.e. running as a non-root user. Such a non-root user does not have write
 access (or even read access) to the /var/root/.ivy2 directory. Likewise,
 that user does not have write access to
 /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports
 .org_release_ports_devel_apache-ivy/apache-ivy/

 Granting temporary write access to all to these two directories allowed
 the port command to complete.

 I have not located the source for the port itself (only the downloaded ivy
 tarball) so cannot provide a fix for the port.
