face at mac:~:125 $ port list R*
R                              @2.8.0          math/R

That's running from trunk - so MacPorts version is

face at mac:~:126 $ port
MacPorts 1.8.0
Entering interactive mode... ("help" for help, "quit" to quit)
[Users/face] > ^D
Goodbye

On my *old* system

face at x:face:123 $ port
MacPorts 1.600
Entering interactive mode... ("help" for help, "quit" to quit)
[Users/face] > ^D
Goodbye
face at x:face:124 $ port list R*
face at x:face:125 $

Looks like you need a newer version of port ;-)
