I'm *somewhat* of a FreeBSD newb, but I don't think you can do multiple =
installs of the same port... can you? I'd like to know.

If not, then the multi-site method outlined at the Drupal site is what you =
want. That method uses the same files (not another instance of each file) =
for every Drupal site. For example, if you have 3 Drupal sites running on =
the same server, they all use the same index.php file. So when you do a =
portupgrade of Drupal, then all three of your Drupal sites will be =
upgraded at once.

Let me know if this doesn't make sense.
