Classic error.  You tried to use one of the *system* CVS tags on the
ports tree.  As is now abundantly clear, that does not work.  Check
your supfile -- you need tag=3D. for the ports collections.  Look at the
example supfiles in /usr/share/examples/cvsup and read the extensive
comments within those files for details.  Or search the archives of
this mailing list for the many, many occasions where this has been
dealt with before.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
