Comment (by jay-macports at shopwatch.org):
I ran into this "problem" too; turns out that I was blocking FTP at the
firewall, and it's that FTP fetch from kermit.columbia.edu that's
critical.
I suspect that those of us installing kermit are slightly more likely to
be doing so in some desperate network circumstance that needs a serial
port - to, say, configure a firewall...
Hopefully this helps the next person.
