This is an ongoing issue with portsdb/ruby.
The way I see it, there are some easy fixes out there

0. install portindex
1. cvsup (as you did)
2. run portindex - this takes a while the 1st time.
3. run portindexdb
4. pkgdb -afuF (or what ever parms you use)
5. portversion -vL= (this dumps out the ports that need updating)
6. portupgrade -a (or what ever parms you use.




Another way: - this changes the default database (btriev) to hash

setenv PORTS_DBDRIVER bdb1_hash

then run your portdb -u
In fact, I opted for this one. I now run my ports tree updating scripts 
as I did BEFORE these issues.
