Strange that...  Do you know you also need to keep putting fuel in your
car?  It sometimes runs out...

Seriously.  CVSup the ports collection unless you have a really good
reason not too.  And install the port upgrade kit if you need it - I'm
assuming you're not running -CURRENT.  The Ports collection is for
-STABLE only.  If it works on -CURRENT you're just lucky (doubly lucky
since we all know -CURRENT is broken unless you happen to hit a good
build).  If you're running a release, or an out of date -STABLE then you
might find that ports are broken too.
