Personally, I always recommend *not* using the ./restore_ports.tcl script but 
instead look at the requested ports file you created, and then install by hand 
those you still want. The problem with the restore script is it attempts to 
restore everything, exactly was it was, which is not always want you want. 
dependencies can sometimes change between OSes versions for instance.

In this case, doing this one by one will also let you find out which port is 
giving you problems.
