OK, I took Donald on with his test and this is what I got:
Here's my INDEX-5 info before running portversion
4947853 Mar 15 2004 INDEX-5
and here it is after
5804696 Sep 21 13:54 INDEX-5
So, a definite change.
And when I ran portversion -vL= the first time, I got the info provided immediately below. But the second time I ran portversion -vL= there was not output. So, what exactly does that mean? and does that mean that now I should run portupgrade -a now?

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Yes, there is. As far as I can tell from what you've given, you're depending on INDEX-5 to be up to date after your ports upgrade. I don't believe it is and you need to run make index or some other means of getting INDEX-5 to be up to date..
Try this experiment: cvsup your ports note the date and size of /usr/ports/INDEX-5 run " portversion -vL=" or portversion -rRvc keep track of that output now cd /usr/ports make index note the date and size of INDEX-4 run portversion -vL= or portverstion -rRvc
I think you'll see a lot more of your installed stuff needs updating.
