I cvsupped and rebuilt this system yesterday evening (around midnight
GMT).

>Description:

When running "pkg_delete w3m-ssl-0.1.7/", pkg_delete consumes 100% of
the CPU and does not complete.  I tried three times, with the same result.
The fourth time, I deleted the trailing slash, and pkg_delete worked fine.

I then tried the same with another package, but it deleted fine even
with the slash.  However, I am able to reproduce the problem with w3m-ssl.

>How-To-Repeat:

cd /usr/ports/www/w3m-ssl
make install
cd /var/db/pkg
pkg_delete w3m-ssl-0.1.7/

>Fix:

Workaround is to not use the trailing slash, I'd guess the fix has
something to do with the new code that was recently added to pkg_delete
to handle trailing slashes.  ;-)
