Comment (by ryandesign):

 That's right. You can tell MacPorts to use a method other than rsync for
 `sudo port sync`, but rsync is the only available method for the part of
 `sudo port selfupdate` that updates MacPorts base. Therefore, if you
 cannot use rsync, you can't use `sudo port selfupdate`. You'll have to
 manually install new MacPorts base releases when they become available,
 such as by downloading the installer from our web site and running it.

 The FAQ entry doesn't seem to point this out; it should probably be added.
 Anyone can edit the wiki.
