     Type:  defect     |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal     |  Milestone:
Component:  base       |    Version:  2.1.99
 Keywords:             |       Port:
-----------------------+--------------------------------
 Running "trunk" as of r98639.  Updated two days ago.

 Hello, has anything changed in the way port(1) is changing users during
 extract/patch/configure/compilation?  Now that I have updated my "base" to
 r98639, whatever value has "macportsuser" been set to, port(1) is unable
 to extract any distfiles.

 port -v build
 sudo port -v build

 with variations on "macportsuser" (set to "root", myself, unset) always
 fails like the attached log file.
