Hello,
     Today I cvsup'd my ports tree and after portupgrading (-R) all ports that required updating, running "make index" fails with a segmentation fault error:
# make index
Generating INDEX - please wait..Out of memory!

Here is the uname info:
$ uname -a
FreeBSD <snip>.vickiandstacey.com 4.8-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 4.8-PRERELEASE #0: Fri Feb 28 23:38:18 GMT 2003 <snip>.vickiandstacey.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/TIGER  i386
$

Some info on the hardware:
Dual Pentium III 1.13GHz procs
Memory: 1 Gig
Swap: 1.5 Gig

This box was fine until today's cvsup of ports tree. Everything worked (make index.., etc) now at least at this point, the "make index" command is failing.

Let me know if there is any further information I could post in aiding you to assist.

Regards,

Stacey
