Thanks Oliver, that did the trick.

BTW, portsdb -Uu printed a few strange messages, like

galeon-1.2.9:"" non-existent -- dependency list incomplete
bjfilter850-1.3:"/usr/ports/print/psutils-A4" non-existent -- dependency list incomplete
gnucash-1.8.2:"/usr/portgnucash-docs-1.8.0" non-existent -- dependency list incomplete

My ports tree is updated with cvsup every other day. Are these bugs in
some of the ports (Makefile?) or do I need to wave dead^W^Wrun more
magic commands to make everything smooth?
