Comment (by ttww):

 Hi,

 I had the same problem.
 Nothing helps, tried some permissions, "different" TARs (bsdtar, tar)
 compiled from sources leads to the same problem...
 After reading the reason (case-insensitive file system ( thanks apple
 **:-(** ) and some "ugly" tar files), I where able compile everything with
 that trick:

 1. Create an empty disc image:
   **hdiutil create -size 4g -type SPARSEBUNDLE -fs "Case-sensitive
 Journaled HFS+" -volname build /Users/XXXX/build.sparsebundle**
 2. Mount the disk image:
   **hdiutil attach /Users/XXXX/build.sparsebundle -mount required -owners
 off**
 3. Copy the content of /opt/local/var/macports to /Volumes/build/macports
 4. Remove the /Volumes/build/macports
 5. Symlink with **ln -s /Volumes/build/macports /opt/local/var/macports

 I had some problems with the permissions and ACL, at the end I did
 everything as root and that works (even create the image...)

 Anyway, now I have my ImageMagick back :-)
