If you use you INDEX, was it fetched or built after updating your ports? If it was fetched, it is going to be just a little old, so it might miss something that was just updated. I do this daily, not weekly, and I often see a port or two that has been updated be missed by the check, but it shows up the next day. (I am NOT using a public mirror.) Second, there has been a recent issue with pkgconfig which might, but probably is not causing this odd behavior. It has most certainly been annoying me in other ways, though I believe it may have been fixed in the past 24 hours. (This might indicate the timing issue I mentioned above.) -- R.
