I didn't know this tool, so I just installed it... and it fails with this:

$ portsclean
/usr/local/sbin/portsclean:447: parse error
  end rescue []
              ^
/usr/local/sbin/portsclean:450: nested method definition
def check_distinfo(origin)
                   ^
/usr/local/sbin/portsclean:460: nested method definition
def delete_file(file)
                ^
/usr/local/sbin/portsclean:472: nested method definition
def delete_dir(dir)
               ^
/usr/local/sbin/portsclean:482: nested method definition
def signal_handler(sig)
                   ^
/usr/local/sbin/portsclean:500: parse error

And $ ruby --version
ruby 1.6.4 (2001-04-18) [i386-freebsd4.3]

So it looks like I'm running the current version af ruby.
