That should never be set that way.
And it works, no idea why that line is in that file as I don't believe
I would have ever put it in their myself.
That's not the default. If you can figure out where you may have read
instructions telling you to set that, it would be helpful (so we could create a
real fix for whatever people were trying to work-around and not have people
setting things that way).
It may have been the default for a short time years ago, when the GSOC
privileges branch was merged but its functionality was not yet enabled
by default.
This sort of thing is why the Migration instructions include a bit about
updating your macports.conf after comparing it with the current
macports.conf.default.
