You are following the wrong list. Kris' script has been saying it was 
broken on ports@ for about 1.5 days. Since almost everyone knows it is 
broken, there isn't any point of complaining about it unless you have a 
fix :).

Use sysutils/portindex. It is still producing a portdb -u with 11406 
port entries.
