Makeing fetchindex really mirror INDEX

To generate the index you use the index target. We don't touch it with
our patches. The fetchindex target fetches the already generated index.
To have a consistent ports tree you should use the fetchindex target
together with the update target, so I don't see where it would make sense
to support a read-only ports tree in the fetchindex target.

Bye,
Alexander.
