Thanks for all the comments - it sounds like it's a pretty safe thing to do. I have one more question though - when I upgrade a machine this wa I will remove all the ports first, so it is just back to the basic system. But Perl is now a port - should I remove this, or should I leave it alone, i.e. is it required for the build process ? cheers, -pcf.
