After spending some time with Michal working on this, we've discovered
that calling sudo either to selfupdate Mac Ports or to install a port,
$PATH is altered. See gist:

<https://gist.github.com/2037776>

The first call to `rvm info` is in a clean shell, just opened. The
second call is after `sudo port selfupdate` (the gist is pretty
self-explanatory).

Opening a new shell reverts the $PATH to how it is written in
bash_profile.

Cheers,

  Phil...
