Comment (by neverpanic):

 See [ff4f0431784625f8b1256a18e70b0d4815cb4f20/macports-base], which fixes
 this for new installations (but since we never update the configuration
 automatically, this won't fix existing problems).

 Also, I really recommend switching to the tarball approach outlined above.
