Well I spent a half hour trying to find it and couldn't. You can get the MT-2.661 source code by going to the download section of moveabletype.org, registering as if you are going to download 3.x, and then choosing 2.661 from the list after you log on. I still run 2.661, but I deleted my distfile and now I can't reinstall the port if I have to unless I find an illegally distributed copy of the source file that the port is asking for.
