This was pointed out yesterday on IRC, fontconfig.org redirects on
freedesktop.org wiki page that has a recursive link for getting the
tarball. I asked on #fontconfig and I've been told this problem is due
to a recent wrong change and it'll be addressed soon, so I didn't file
a ticket on the trac system.

In the meanwhile fetch the distfile by hand from one of the mirrors
[1] and put it in ${prefix}/var/macports/distfiles/fontconfig,
${prefix} default being /opt/local .
