It has an effect on how the upgrade-site-packages target works. I wrote
it specifically because I didn't want to have to install portupgrade
just to get the upgrade-site-packages target to work.

I don't know what you mean by this.

I don't know what you mean by this.
I think you might be confusing two different issues. The USE_PORTMASTER

which is not something called during the normal build process by any
upgrading tool. I'm not sure how using UPGRADE_TOOL will help this at
all.
