I've did a comparison between the INDEX generated by your portindex and the old one:
(run old portindex and ./cache-init, cvsup -L2, run portindex and
./cache-update using cvsup output)

- your chache-update is faster.
- picks up also changes in the WWW line, while the old one doesn't seems to do.
- the old one is removing more than one blank (space) characters from COMMENT
- there are also some differences in depends, for example for
pips-sc65_66s-2.6.2 (print/pips-sc60s) the old portindex gives also
autoconf-2.53_3 and m4-1.4.1

- your portindex seems it dosn't see (which wasn't touch by the cvsup):

I'll do a test with a canonically generated INDEX-5.
