Many ports (especially those that use perl) have a different list of dependencies when run on 4.x and 5.x, and this needs to be reflected accurately in the INDEX file used. This is something that must be fixed before 5.0-R (and probably before 5.0-DP2, which is already late). I'm going to add a /usr/ports/INDEX-5 to support this (with associated bsd.port.mk changes). I don't think this should affect packages (or sysinstall) since that will use whatever INDEX file is distributed with the package sets (and those are freshly-generated by the package builds and therefore always correct no matter what). I hope to get to this over the weekend, but if someone else can submit a patch it will help me.
