Well, here is my today's situation:

marck at woozle:/usr/ports> make index && echo ok
Generating INDEX - please wait.. Done.
46.563u 13.416s 1:07.48 88.8%   302+1497k 963+6io 3pf+0w
ok

marck at woozle:/usr/ports> (cd !$ && make clean)
( cd x11-themes/kdeartwork3 && make clean )
kdebase-3.2.2_1: "/usr/ports/audio/artswrapper" non-existent -- dependency list
incomplete

===>  Cleaning for kdebase-3.2.2_1
===>  Cleaning for kdelibs-3.2.2_3
===>  Cleaning for kdeartwork-3.2.2

(so audio/artswrapper is missing, and `make index' misses this absence)

Sincerely,
