The comment character in front of the $FreeBSD$ line of the twpol.txt 
file was missing.  Please CVSup again or run the following:

    cd /usr/ports/security/tripwire &&
    sed '4s/^/# /' files/twpol.txt > files/twpol.txt.new &&
    mv files/twpol.txt.new files/twpol.txt

Anyone who has CVSupped over the last two weeks should have the fixed 
version.  Sorry for the inconvenience.
