The ports java/eclipse-eclemma, games/openarena-data and
games/openarena-oax are all ports of mine that await commit
(ports/144849 from March and ports/146818 from May).

The pkg_version(1) manual page states:
     !       The installed package exists in the index but for some reason,
             pkg_version was unable to compare the version number of the
             installed package with the corresponding entry in the index.

Well, these installed packages definitely do not exist in the
INDEX. I would expect ? instead:
     ?       The installed package does not appear in the index.  This could
             be due to an out of date index or a package taken from a PR that
             has not yet been committed.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Regards
