You don't tell us the output of your complete mess. The best way to proceed is follow step by step what say the file /usr/ports/UPDATING, "chunk" 20070519. It's the more simple and easy way for get Xorg 7.2 running on your FreeBSD 6.2 machine. Before do just this portupgrade -a i was triying with portmanager -u -l and others stuffs on my way, but it can't got it. Keep trying. It isn't very dificult. Regards.
