I pkg_delete'd portupgrade and all of ruby, reinstalled portupgrade (and all 
of ruby) and had to do a portsdb -Uu even after I did a make fetchindex 
in /usr/ports to make the pkgdb in /var/db/pkg happy.  Since I've done all of 
those things, portupgrade is working again.  I had to to this on three 
machines --2 5.3 beta2 and one 4.10-STABLE, although on the stable machine I 
managed to skip the portsdb -Uu step after the make fetchindex step.  
Whatever broke the pkgdb did it around the 8500 number port in the index.
