>Description:
I was attempting to upgrade two ports at the same time, and filled my filesystem.   From here on, all attempts to run portupgrade crash with an out of memory error.

daphne# pkgdb -F
[Updating the pkgdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 150 packages found (-2 +6) (...)/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/pkgdb.rb:375:in `each': tried to allocate too big memory (NoMemoryError)

This is repeatable, and the system is still in that state.  My guess is that there is a data corruption issue on my machine someplace, but I don't know which files they could be.  I'm not sure where to look from here to find.

The ports I was upgradeing when this happened are pcre, and libaudiofile.   I deinstalled those ports, and built/installed them manually, and the problem persists.
