I was receiving such errors from portsdb -uU too (abort core dumped), 
and I switched over to portindex utility (portindex && portindexdb, 
then portupgrade -airR to upgrade my ports). Now I am using it to my
full satisfaction.

Portindex utility is located in:
/usr/ports/sysutils/portindex

Advantage of it is, that it is much much faster than portsdb.

Disadvantage of it is, that it needs python and posgresql
(at least client installed, full server is not required).
