Apparently, some error occurred during a CVS update of my ports tree, and ports-mgmt/porttools wound up with an empty Makefile, generating the above error message, which wound up in my INDEX-10 file because of the way I was invoking "make index" in my nightly ports maintenance cron job. Still, it did point up a need for more robustness in mkreadmes, so I suppose it was a fortuitous mistake. :-) -- Conrad J.
