Comment(by nick@…):

 According to https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-dupes/pull/21 and linked
 pages, the problem is Mountain Lion specific and has to do with locale
 settings and improper handling of these in sed. You have to unset LANG
 and/or set LC_CTYPE=C and/or LC_ALL=C.

 {{{
 sudo env ... port install ...
 }}}
 did not work for me. However, moving /usr/bin/sed to /usr/bin/sed2 and
 adding the following executable script /usr/bin/sed

 {{{
 #!/bin/sh

 unset LANG
 LC_CTYPE=C
 LC_ALL=C
 export LC_CTYPE LC_ALL

 /usr/bin/sed2 "$@"
 }}}

 makes the port install.
