Comment:
It looks like the new distfiles server is presenting the wrong MIME type
for .dmg files:

That should be application/x-apple-diskimage or at least application
/octet-stream, not application/x-troff-man or text/plain.
I guess no MIME type is configured for .dmg on the server so it defaults
to text/plain. And for the MacPorts dmg, the ".1" portion of the filename
is looking like a manpage suffix.
The server's default MIME type should be changed from text/plain to
application/octet-stream and a MIME type for .dmg should be added as
application/x-apple-diskimage.
