WRKDIRPREFIX= /usr/obj
FreeBSD version is FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE-p4
I make use of a seperate building directory /usr/obj (WRKDIRPREFIX).
When the directory /usr/obj/usr/ports exist, and it exist when building packages from the port collection, the mentioned error occured.
WORKAROUND:
By removing the directory /usr/obj/usr/ports the cd /usr/ports && make index works.
