Portdowngrade now simply checks out the port to your current directory; if you run it in ~, you simply cd $portname. I wouldn't recommend the old behaviour of downgrading in place like that; it significantly complicates many things, including svn conflicts and portsnap update maybe overwriting it, maybe not. I view it as a tool for testing older versions/reverting until a fix is issued.
