portsdb -uU leaves lockfiles in /tmp

I run 'portsdb -uU' every night. I've just noticed that lockfiles are
being left in /tmp after each invocation. The files look like:
/tmp/courier-authlib.locktest.XXXX
The Makefile in security/courier-authlib references $LOCKTEST, which makes
the above lockfile. I have two questions:
1. Why is portsdb doing this?
2. How can I make portsdb be as verbose as possible, and show me
what it's doing when it reaches the point where it creates the
lockfiles?
Thanks,
Jubal
