You could try deleting or editing ignore.db. Mine's in
/usr/local/share/portmanager/. Also check
/usr/local/etc/portmanager/pm-020.conf.

Does make run ok inside each ports directory? Just so you know nothing's
really broken. Maybe delete any work directory before and after.

There is a note in the man page about not interrupting it at some
critical stage.

Thanks Chris, so I'll check out the ignore.db and the pm-020.conf.
The ports are able to build with no problems on their own, which is
wierd.  I'll post back if any of these things work.
