Did you recvsup and then run portsdb -uU? My 5-current system has been 
generating INDEX for more than 5 minutes. When all of these messages 
show up, they usually start appearing by now. A complete make index 
takes about 20 minutes on opal. Portsdb -U uses make index.

What does a uname -a produce? There was a thing with jails and I don't 
have a jail setup on any of my machines.

What I get with a recent cvsup of ports-all is

Generating INDEX-5 - please wait.. Done.
