The problem may well be present in 1.6 as well, it was just reported
against 1.7.0rc1.

Did the MacPorts installer create the .tcshrc? If so, deleting it will
probably cause the shell to go back to getting its settings from
wherever it got them before. You'd then need to do the manual
configuration that Rainer pointed out, if you wish to use MacPorts.
