I thought I had seen an email to the list that the bug was found; and
a fix committed. I waited a couple of hours, ran make update,
etcetera; and this resulted:

# portsdb -Uu
Updating the ports index ... Generating INDEX.tmp - please
wait.. Done.
done
[Updating the portsdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 11736

[BUG] Bus Error
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-07-29) [i386-freebsd4]

Abort (core dumped)

Anyway, it's near 12:30 EST; that's about 4:30 or so UTC/GMT.

I'd file a bug report; but it seems redundant at this point. And I'm
not sure where I would send it.
