Simple,

do this...

pkg_version -c > update_ports.sh

Then go in update_ports.sh and you will see a list up
ports that need to be updated (and their dependencies
will be in there too).  Delete the top few lines, add
'#!/bin/sh'; do chmod 755 update_ports.sh, then do
./update_ports.sh, and 
viola!, updated ports.

Later,
Nate
