rsync readlink failed invalid argument?

[Kevin Ballard]

That's interesting. It looks like rsync is complaining because you  
have a work directory in your MailtoMutt folder. However, doing a  
selfupdate should blow away the work directory.

Try doing a `sudo port clean MailtoMutt` and selfupdating again. See  
if that fixes it.
