ruby segfaults when running portsdb -u

[Palle Girgensohn]

Hi!

When running portsdb -Uu, it fails on -u every time.

Yesterday I tracked it down to the entry around row 8825 of the INDEX file. 
It seems more dependant on that row number than what actual record is on 
that row. OpenSSH-askpass-1.2.2.2001.02.24 was there, but removing it made 
the next row fail. Is there some kind of memory problem in ruby, perhaps?

$ ulimit
unlimited

This happens on two different machines, FreeBSD 4.10:

Information for portupgrade-20040701_3:

It seems to work fine @ FreeBSD 5.3

Ideas?
