After removing this patch, and recompiling, and reinstalling I am now 
getting:

portupgrade -as
[Rebuilding the pkgdb <format:dbm_hash> in /var/db/pkg ... ---> 
[Executing a command as root: sudo /usr/local/sbin/pkgdb -aFQ]
Command failed [exit code 1]: sudo /usr/local/sbin/pkgdb -aFQ

So your fix doesn't seem to work for me.  Thanks for the help, though.
