Oracle may have changed their server configs. Is you paste this path  
into safari you see you get redirected. You are downloading this page  
and hence your checksum is failing.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/berkeley-db/db/update/4.6.21/patch.4.6.21.1

The patch files are available here which is where port is fetching  
them from on my system.
http://distfiles.macports.org/db4/4.6.21_6

Download them manually and put them in distpath.
I think this command will show you where they go.
port distfiles db46

On my system it is here:
/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/db4/4.6.21_6

$ cd /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/db4/4.6.21_6
$ sudo curl http://distfiles.macports.org/db4/4.6.21_6/patch.4.6.21.
