We have seen some "clever" ways of doing it.  For my own part, I studied
those carefully, but in the end I bit the bullet and went by the book
(UPDATING).  I found the upgrade fairly smooth and swift.

I ran portupgrade with the "-aP" option, and this step took 3 hours 40
mins on my modest AMD XP 2200.  There were some hiccups, but after some
reboots and adjusting, everything (well, almost everything) was back to
normal.
