No. I gave up on it after it failed miserably on a couple of test

since then, but I didn't look back at it, since then, because I found
the procedures outlined on
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum#Fedora_17_-.3E_Fedora_18
so far worked reliably.

I just tried the procedure offered there to upgrade F18/64 XFCE to F19
and it appears to have produced a working system. I rebooted and tried
most applications, everything appears to work as it did before the
upgrade even though it's not a released version.
The process is simple enough, it took some time, must have been more
than an hour, I went to town to pick up horse feed while it ran and it
was still finishing when I got back.
From my one try I would say the upgrade method is the easiest I've
tried, no reconfiguration to mess with!
