Read the 20070519 entry carefully, and follow the instructions, in
the order presented, carefully. If they don't work, you should use
script or nohup to save the error messages to a logfile which you
quote in followup emails so we can take a look.
In order words, you should start with:
portupgrade -f -o ports-mgmt/portupgrade-devel portupgrade
