>Description:
setting "A4=yes" and "PAPERSIZE=a4" in /etc/make.conf, which is needed in our environment causes some warning messages while generating local index file:
Warning: Duplicate INDEX entry: jpeg2ps-a4-1.9_2
Warning: Duplicate INDEX entry: a2ps-a4-4.13b_4
Warning: Duplicate INDEX entry: c2ps-a4-4.0_1
Warning: Duplicate INDEX entry: enscript-a4-1.6.4_4
Warning: Duplicate INDEX entry: html2ps-a4-1.0.b5_4,1
Warning: Duplicate INDEX entry: lprps-a4-2.5
Warning: Duplicate INDEX entry: mp-a4-3.0.1
Warning: Duplicate INDEX entry: psutils-a4-1.17_2

the first part of the resulting lines in INDEX-8 then read:
jpeg2ps-a4-1.9_2|/usr/ports/graphics/jpeg2ps-letter|/usr/local|Convert
a2ps-a4-4.13b_4|/usr/ports/print/a2ps-letter|/usr/local|Formats an asc
c2ps-a4-4.0_1|/usr/ports/print/c2ps-letter|/usr/local|A PostScript pre
enscript-a4-1.6.4_4|/usr/ports/print/enscript-letter|/usr/local|ASCII

mp-a4-3.0.1|/usr/ports/print/mp-letter|/usr/local|A PostScript printin
psutils-a4-1.17_2|/usr/ports/print/psutils-letter|/usr/local|Utilities

The origins of the installed packages all correctly show the a4-version:
$ pkg_info -qo psutils-a4-1.17_2
print/psutils-a4

Checking the version of the installed package against /usr/ports/INDEX-8 fails: 
$ pkg_version -vIL= -s psutils-a4-1.17_2
psutils-a4-1.17_2                   !   Comparison failed

At least in these cases "make index" picks the wrong combination of package name and originating port directory.

>How-To-Repeat:
add "A4=yes" and "PAPERSIZE=a4" to /etc/make.conf
cd /usr/ports
make index
