Well you definitely shouldn't be trying to do anything else with MacPorts while a selfupdate or sync is running.
Still, I had fixed this three years ago:

That was before portindex was changed to no longer regenerate the whole thing each time, so I'm not sure if it's gotten broken again since then.

Is that still happening?
