Normally, yes. There is only one branch of the ports.

I said "normally". Recently gettext has been split. What was gettext is now 
gettext-old, and what was gettext-devel is now gettext. This can cause an 
automatic portupgrade to fail. At least it does for me. I would at least (in 
my opinion) upgrade gettext first before anything else.

Standard Disclaimer: portupgrade is a great tool. But it is still in 
development. Use at your own risk. You have been warned.
