It is looking like a hardware problem. I update portmaster to 1.24 and
it didn't help. When I tried with the -B option it froze in a different
place. I then csup the latest source rm'd /usr/obj and attempted a
buildworld.

Lo and behold it froze up. It has been very hot the last few days here
in Kona but all the fans seem to pulling good air. I am now running
memtest and will let you know what I find.

Thanks for your help
