Is this a bug in RVM or MacPorts?

RVM has apparently decided that Bash is the only shell they ever need to
support.

MacPorts supports any Bourne shell derivative, which is why it uses the
standard ~/.profile; by your report, RVM uses bash-specific startup files.
 I would say theirs is the bug, or at least the infelicity (being a zsh
user).
