It's still failing :(

Something funky is going on. Brand new cloned ports tree:

%%%
root@mater:/usr/ports # ls -laF
total 9
drwxr-xr-x   2 root  wheel   2 10 Jun 09:25 ./
drwxr-xr-x  16 root  wheel  16  3 Mar 09:33 ../
root@mater:/usr/ports # cd ..
root@mater:/usr # git clone --depth 1 https://git.freebsd.org/ports.git 
ports
Cloning into 'ports'...
  <receiving 183462 objects... etc>
root@mater:/usr # cd ports
root@mater:/usr/ports # make index
Generating INDEX-13 - please wait..--- describe.accessibility ---

/usr/ports/:lang/perl5.32
  Done.
root@mater:/usr/ports # ls -lF INDEX-13
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  0 10 Jun 09:51 INDEX-13
root@mater:/usr/ports # git status

Your branch is up to date with 'origin/main'.

nothing to commit, working tree clean
root@mater:/usr/ports # cat /etc/make.conf
cat: /etc/make.conf: No such file or directory
root@mater:/usr/ports #
%%%

Is there maybe something in /var/db causing this?
Is it the ':' character in '/usr/ports/:lang/perl5.32' causing it?
Why is nobody else having this issue? Seems repeatable..

I'm on stable-13-4f9d5dcc4 (June 7 13:52:51 UTC+10)
I am not in a jail or a VM, I'm on the real host.

Because I'm getting desperate, can I download a copy of INDEX-13 that
matches my current ports tree?
