Quick question about portupgrade's support for pkgng.

The /usr/ports/UPDATING says:
20121015:
   AFFECTS: users of ports-mgmt/portupgrade
   AUTHOR: bdrewery@FreeBSD.org

   Portupgrade now supports pkgng. To use pkgng, enable it in your 
make.conf,
   and convert your databases.

   This is optional and not currently required.

   # make -C /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg install clean
   # echo 'WITH_PKGNG=yes' >> /etc/make.conf
   # pkg2ng
   # pkgdb -fu

Having done all of the above, I ran portupgrade to update all the pkgs 
that needed upgrading on my system, and got the message below:
root@box0:/root/tmp # portupgrade -varRP --batch -L '%s_%s'
USING PKGNG
Packages are not yet suported. Use pkg(8) directly.

That doesn't sound like portupgrade supports pkgng, or did I misread the 
message in the UPDATING file?

Thanks.
