I cannot run portupgrade or make on any port, up-to-date or not.  For
example, lang/ruby18 yields...

Please report the problem to knu at FreeBSD.org [maintainer] and attach the
"/usr/ports/lang/ruby18/work/ruby-1.8.1-2004.05.02/config.log" including the
output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to
provide an overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. an `ls
/var/db/pkg`).
