make index broken?

[Kevin A. Pieckiel]

I'm running 5.3 on i386 (built from sources DL'ed via CVS on
2 Dec 2004) and a ports tree (complete) that was downloaded via
CVS on 2 Dec 2004.  My src tree is pulling from the RELENG_5
tag and my ports tree is pulling from HEAD.  As of a fresh CVS
of ports today (6 Dec 2004), I still cannot issue a 'make index'
while in /usr/ports.  What am I doing wrong?  I keep getting the
following error message (which I also got while running 5.2.1
before upgrading to 5.3):

Generating INDEX-5 - please wait.."Makefile", line 34: warning: String comparison operator should be either == or !=
"Makefile", line 34: Malformed conditional (defined(PHP_VERS) && ${PHP_VERS} < 420)

********************************************************************
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not supported with partial or out-of-date ports collections -- in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".
