of course.

You might should consider to switch to svn and portupgrade. There is
one advantage of this pair. Portupgrade does not leave you with a
machine that cannot be used anymore. The worst case is that no port
gets upgraded but your machine still works. Svn has the advantage that
you can chose your port 'version' if the current revision does not work
for you.

Anyway, some other reported the same problem with a current ports tree.
I have the revision number 341159 in case of you want to try.
