Everything should be working now, but it could be that gnutls was updated to 3.3.x during one of those outages. If so, committing any change to the port should cause the server to attempt to mirror it again, because there's supposed to be a post-commit hook that does that. There's also supposed to be a daily cronjob to mirror all distfiles, in case the post-commit missed something.

Is your MacPorts prefix on a different volume than your OS X startup volume? That's apparently a problem now, in that launchd tries to load the plist before the volume that the plist is on has been mounted.
