There appears to be a problem with the autoconf port.
After doing portsnap fetch update, portversion says the following:
bsd00# portversion -vl "<"
[Updating the portsdb <format:bdb_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 19039 =20
port entries found =20
.........1000.........2000.........3000.........4000.........5000.........60=

..12000.........13000.........14000.........15000.........16000.........1700=
0.........18000.........19000 ..... =20
done]
autoconf < needs updating (port has 2.62) (=3D> =20
'devel/autoconf262')
Trying to upgrade autoconf, I get the following:
bsd00# portupgrade -bvpp autoconf

I would really appreciate it if someone can point me in the right direction.
