There was a problem like this a couple of days ago but I haven't seen 
any problem generating INDEX today. I would re-cvsup and see if it goes 
away. 

FWIW, I have a chron job that updates my ports at 4 everyday. I didn't 
have any problem at 4am on my 4-stable system. I wasn't booted to 
5-current on opal. I am trying that now.
