A-ha!  I think we've found it!

root:/usr/home/conrads# ls -l /usr/ports/games/angband/pkg/PLIST
br-srw--w-  1 8426901  8085310   52, 0x3934003a Dec  3 05:07
/usr/ports/games/angband/pkg/PLIST

I had a nasty system crash about a week ago.  fsck had to do some rather

I'll just delete and regrab it on the next sup.

Thanks!
