Well, "chflags schg /usr/ports/INDEX*" would *prevent* the modification

"chflags noschg /usr/ports/INDEX*" to undo it.

This was a really good suggestion. While I wasn't lucky in regards to having a
process whine about being unable to write to INDEX-9, I did find that now there
is an INDEX-9.bz2 sitting in /usr/ports, which I assume comes from a download of
it. I'm going to try setting INDEX-9.bz2 to also have the schg flag on it, maybe
that'll make a process complain. If not, at least I can modify my manual INDEX
building to remove the schg flag before updated INDEX and then setting it again
afterwards.
Thanks,
