A few ports people are looking at this and trying to decide how best to fix the port in question. As a more long-term fix, I'm going to add extra checks on my portsnap build server to stop new INDEX files from being distributed until they are correct. Right now people get an INDEX built from the most recent tree on which "make describes" succeeded; once the current breakage ends, I'm going to change that to giving people an INDEX from the most recent tree where "make describes" succeeded _and_ produced a file which portsnap's make_index manages to turn into an INDEX without any errors.
