I had this too, on 6.0-STABLE (to which I upgraded from 5 on Saturday 
without any trouble).  I recompiled all my ruby ports (which took a long 
time because because it kept saying the pkgdb was in the wrong format and 
would rebuild it every time I added or removed something, I guess because 
of the ruby-bdb1 and ruby-bdb4 ports going and coming), then reinstalled 
portupgrade, and that did it.

My /var/db/ports/portupgrade/options now looks like:

   # This file is auto-generated by 'make config'.
   # No user-servicable parts inside!
   # Options for portupgrade-2.0.0_1,1
   _OPTIONS_READ=portupgrade-2.0.0_1,1
   WITH_BDB4=true

This is just me stumbling around without a clue, but it worked.
