That is strange indeed.

I should be more precise: it's spelled "PortIndex" and it lives at  
the root of your ports tree, so:

/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/ 
PortIndex

It should be getting updated along with everything else in your ports  
tree when you sync or selfupdate.
