Ok, it's filed:

I am attaching a script which reproduces the problem on my system  
(clean install of Snow Leopard), and the output I get. When you run  
it, do you see the problem on your system as well? You need to edit  
the user in the script. Note that it installs MacPorts in /tmp/mp and  
downloads the MacPorts source to /tmp/macportsbase. You can edit these  
at the top of the script too if you want.
