I think something in MacPorts must recently have broken w.r.t. the

http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/ticket/12486
Hasn't the "opendarwin" master sites alias been removed from
MacPorts recently?
Yes, I removed it. Most of the mirrors are offline now and we
shouldn't care about the ones that remain online... 'cause that's all
there is to them, they only "remain". Whatever was in them should be
moved to the macports mirrors list, and ltmain13 and ltconfig13 are
already there under Yve's distfile directory.
If so, then the 160 ports that still use that alias (mostly lots of
kde stuff) are now broken since they don't know where to fetch
from. How should we handle this?
As simple as updating the Portfiles as we go along, encouraging
users to submit patches if they care enough to fix them themselves.
While on the subject, ltmain13 and ltconfig13 should be moved out of
Yve's dir and into their own, with ports fetching them through
macports:ltmain13 & macports:ltconfig13 master_sites entries.
