Kris has a script that checks "make index". There isn't anything that 
checks "portsdb -U". I also find that "make index" produces an INDEX.db 
with typically 1 port or more than "portsdb -U" does. I log the 
production of "make index" and I like to see a log like

ruby# m make-index-20031008-1033.log
Generating INDEX - please wait.. Done.

Portsdb -U usually produces a lot more messages.
