I used to have issues with portupgrade as well. I traced my problem to
using the wrong portupgrade. I have been using portupgrade for several
months without an issue ( except the Xorg 7 transition ). Make sure to
use

    /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portupgrade

and not

    /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade


I also follow the following port method, as per the handbook suggestion:

    portsnap fetch
    portsnap update

method. This has worked without an issue for me. I am running FreeBSD
6.2-RELEASE-p8.


I hope this helps.

All ports managment utilities have been moved to ports-mgmt quite some time ago. So if you still have a sysutils/portupgrade you should update your portstree.
