 I had this problem two times this year on two different machines. (never 
 before)
 I don't know if it is caused by some bug in FreeBSD base (pw) or in the 
 ports infrastructure.
 
 It was problem with corrupted password database, but from my point of 
 view, the corruption was caused by port installation process. Password 
 database was correct before and all four files (passwd master.passwd 
 pwd.db spwd.db) had same modification date and time of first 
 unsuccessful port install.
 
 A new user account can be manually found in passwd / master.passwd or by 
 command vipw, but was not seen by 'pw' command.
