Hmm, now you're out of my area of expertise.

When I installed my latest systems, I installed 9.x and 10.0 from
scratch and used pkg, rather than trying to upgrade in-place.  In
theory it should work, but ...

In any case 8.4 will be out of support in 6 months.  You might want
to keep that in mind.  I would not be too surprised if some things
were starting to not work there.
