Comment (by kencu):

 Yes, I built it under 10.4. You likely are seeing an openssl issue.

 MacPorts at present builds against the system SSL parts in /usr/lib/, and
 on 10.4 to 10.9 these are too old to be reliable. You don't see the error
 often, as you get most files from macports' distfile mirrors, which have
 degraded SSL to allow older systems. See [ticket:51516].

 Since about 2016, what I have done is install newer SSL and build macports
 against that, on all systems < 10.10. Then it works everywhere. I have
 written the process up from time to time over the past several years, but
 it has not been encouraged to users. It is a simple process, although on
 Tiger it takes a while because you need to build apple-gcc42 again.
