    What you probably ran into is the common chicken and egg problem where
if pkgng is upgraded ports, it blows up when it tries to deinstall the
package, or similarly, when portmaster is upgraded, it doesn't halt the
upgrade and restart it properly.
    It's most likely still a problem; I'm going to doublecheck to make sure
that's the case and file PRs if it is.
Thanks,
