 Since upgrading to MacPorts 2.5.2 from 2.4.4 sometimes the activation of
 ports fails with a "permission denied" error.

 {{{
 --->  Removing work directory for ntp
 Error: Couldn't activate ntp 4.2.8p11_0: can't create directory
 "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_sysutils_ntp":
 permission denied
 Error: rev-upgrade failed: Error rebuilding ntp
 Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets to report a bug.
 }}}
 (ntp is just used as an example here. The error also occurs with different
 ports)

 When running {{{port activate [port] @[new version]}}} afterwards the
 activation works.
