Except that the INDEX file is updated on a very ad-hoc basis.
But, if I have a copy of the ports tree checked out on freefall,
then I can generate a new INDEX on a regular basis. Because of
the current irregularity, I may opt for this anyway.
However, just using the INDEX file will fail in detecting many
updates because only a few selected bits of the Makefile are
reflected the INDEX. With a checked out ports tree, I'll have to
dig through the CVS directories to discover the most recent date
change. Maybe the Makefile target that generates INDEX could do
this? Hmmm....
