 > did you check that?

 Nope - I don't have enough disk space to maintain old OS X VMs. SNI is
 just the first term that came to my head when I saw that error message.

 > Since distfiles.macports.org is a CDN, there's probably no way to avoid
 the requirement for SNI.

 > Maybe the configuration of our CDN changed recently so that it now
 requires a higher version of TLS than before.

 > I could also imagine that the root CAs shipped with the respective
 versions of the OSes have just expired in the meanwhile.

 Either case is beyond the control. Maybe the only way to go is using HTTP.

 > Take a look at ​https://github.com/macports/macports-
 ports/blob/master/_resources/port1.0/fetch/mirror_sites.tcl#L503-L507,
 which decides whether to use TLS or not.

 Thank you for the pointer! Opened https://github.com/macports/macports-
 ports/pull/4772 to workaround that.
