Assigning to maintainer (this may, since the mirrors are sourceforge, basically be a dup of bug 7484).

This is definitely the sourceforge mirror bug. However, Kitware does provide their own files locally as well. I'll submit a modified Portfile that fetches the distribution from Kitware's server.

Do you still have this problem with the latest version of DarwinPorts?

The archive properly transfers from sourceforge, so I'm marking this as a duplicate of the sourceforge mirrors BUG #7484.
