Comment:
Was the latter output from running selfupdate? I believe that it still
uses rsync regardless of how you have the ports tree installed on your
system. At least if I'm reading
[http://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/base/src/macports1.0/macports.tcl?rev=40834#L1803
the source] right.
Since you're running MacPorts 1.6, selfupdate won't be doing anything
right now since that's the current versioned release. Long term, syncing
for selfupdate via other means should be supported.
