I've never seen this or heard it reported by others, so I assume
something is out of date/out of sync on your system.

Well, this is expected. portsdb -Uu regenerates the INDEX, so it is
'M'odified from the version in CVS. This will probably cause
conflicts when you cvs update a new INDEX file from the repository,
but if you're building your own copy, what do you care?
