MacPorts 1.8.1 has been released

[Ralph Pass]

I have now done a sudo port selfupdate on two more Macs running Snow 
Leopard:  One a Macbook Pro that is about 30 months old and an iMac that 
was purchased a month ago.   Both times it worked and the sudo port 
update outdated did as well.

The only problem machine was a Macbook Pro purchased four months ago.

I guess the only solution is to remove Macports and reinstall.
