	portupgrade-2.3.1,2

>Description:

	If portupgrade attempts to upgrade ruby (its own interpreter,)
	it catches a fatal error that seems related to bdb databases.
	Fortunately, now the error doesn't seem to damage the upgrade;
	only the bdb databases become broken.

>How-To-Repeat:

 dg# portupgrade -a
 --->  Upgrading 'ruby-1.8.6_2,1' to 'ruby-1.8.6.111,1' (lang/ruby18)
 --->  Building '/usr/ports/lang/ruby18'
 
 [skip output from successful build and install]
 
 ===>  Cleaning for ruby-1.8.6.111,1
 --->  Cleaning out obsolete shared libraries

>Fix:

	Perhaps add ruby and ruby18-bdb to held packages by default
	if it's unsafe to upgrade them via portupgrade?
