1. please, back it out - non up-to-date INDEX never been a problem
2. it takes forever to portupgrade to recreate INDEX[-5] after cvsup
removed it. I do not have a lot of free time.
3. If you really want to leave it removed, please discuss it in public
list, we are open project and this change is not superconfidential.

Thanks!
