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 extensive cleaning up (thank goodness no serious damage).
