At first, I thought maybe the fetching of the expat tarball failed, so I manually downloaded it into my home directory. But, the above repeated itself. Any ideas?

Hmm... I'm not 100% sure but I can think of two things.

1. Did you install the XCode that comes on the Snow Leopard CD? Older versions don't work.

2. Did you install X11 also?

3. run
sudo port selfupdate

How did you install macports? Did you use the install package? That is the easiest way to do it.
