Surprising indeed! I agree it looks like it did work:

http://build.macports.org/builders/buildports-snowleopard-x86_64/builds/3167

My understanding was that the buildbot (and the distfiles server) are on a 
restricted network and therefore can only fetch from http and https protocols. 
That's why we've had to add http master_sites to many ports that only had ftp 
master_sites, and switch many git fetches to http/https URLs. Maybe the 
network's restrictions were relaxed recently.
