Subject:   2 Qs re upgrading XF86

I am wondering if anyone can testify to successfully upgrading XF86
(4.0 - 4.1) without disturbing currently installed X clients.  I saw an
article (some time ago on freebsdzine.org) which suggested that you
should uninstall X clients before the upgrade and reinstall them
after.  I think that is a little unreasonable since you are just
replacing shared libs.

Also, can portupgrade safely upgrade something as weighty as X?

thanks all
