Well, some minor progress. This is the latest output:

Looking up portsnap.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 5 mirrors found.
Fetching snapshot tag from portsnap5.FreeBSD.org... failed.
Fetching snapshot tag from portsnap6.FreeBSD.org... failed.
Fetching snapshot tag from portsnap1.FreeBSD.org... done.
Fetching snapshot metadata... fetch:

done.
grep: tINDEX.new: No such file or directory
look: tINDEX.new: No such file or directory

Portsnap metadata appears bogus.
Cowardly refusing to proceed any further.
