Portsdb Error

I am getting an error on both of my servers when running "portsdb -Uu".
I am running 4.10-RELEASE using cvsup with ports-all collection. I just
cvsup'd, and portupgraded two days ago on one server. When I went to do
the other today I got this error, then I went back to the one I did two
days ago to see if it would also error, and it did. Thanks, Tom

The error follows:

Updating the ports index ... Generating INDEX.tmp - please
wait..Variable WITHOUT is recursive.
===> sysutils/bacula-client failed
*** Error code 1

********************************************************************
Before reporting this error, verify that you are running a supported
version of FreeBSD (see http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/) and that you
have a complete and up-to-date ports collection.  (INDEX builds are
not supported with partial or out-of-date ports collections -- in
particular, if you are using cvsup, you must cvsup the "ports-all"
collection, and have no "refuse" files.)  If that is the case, then
report the failure to ports at FreeBSD.org together with relevant
details of your ports configuration (including FreeBSD version,
your architecture, your environment, and your /etc/make.conf
settings, especially compiler flags and WITH/WITHOUT settings).

Note: the latest pre-generated version of INDEX may be fetched
automatically with "make fetchindex".
