I'm preparing an upgrade for a port that I maintain (fricas). I have made a 
private upgrade in a local directory, and the normal install succeeds. However, 
in preparation of th Pull Request I tried 'sudo port -vst install' and this 
fails with a permission error in the extraction phase.

```
Executing:  cd 
"/opt/local/var/macports/build/_Users_pieter_Projects_MACPORTS_math_fricas/fricas/work"
 && /usr/bin/bzip2 -dc 
'/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/fricas/fricas-1.3.8-full.tar.bz2' | 
/usr/bin/tar -xf - 
sip_copy_proc: mkdir(/opt/local/var/macports/sip-workaround/502/usr): 
Permission denied
Command failed:  cd 
"/opt/local/var/macports/build/_Users_pieter_Projects_MACPORTS_math_fricas/fricas/work"
 && /usr/bin/bzip2 -dc 
'/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/fricas/fricas-1.3.8-full.tar.bz2' | 
/usr/bin/tar -xf - 
Exit code: 128
```

It fails to create the directory 
'/opt/local/var/macports/sip-workaround/502/usr'. In fact on a previous run it 
failed to create '/opt/local/var/macports/sip-workaround/502' and then I 
created that directory manually. And then it fails at the next level. I don't 
like to create the whole directory structure manually. Is there anything else I 
can do, or is this actually a bug?
