--------------------+--------------------------------
 I'm on OSX 10.9.0 (13A603) with MacPorts 2.2.0 installed, and apparently
 Xcode version 4.4.1.  Trying to selfupdate to MacPorts 2.2.1
 I run
 sudo port -v selfupdate
 and everything starts off well until we get to:

 I would attach the config.log that's mentioned, but I looked for it and
 can't find it.  Not even sure where it would be.  Best guess is
 /opt/local/var/log/ but that log directory doesn't exist under var on my
 computer.

 I also tried changing the sources.conf file to point to
 rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ports/ but that gave the same error.
