>Description:
1.  Install FreeBSD 3.3
2.  Install a few things from /usr/ports
3.  Wait a few weeks
4.  Find something thats been upgraded.
5.  Upgrade it by typing "make xxxxx????"

WHY can't we have a make upgrade target?  It would almost make sense, and doing a make deinstall doesn't work if your ports collection is up to date, and who wants to have to type all that stuff to do a pkg_delete

Ugh.  I know, if you don't like it, fix it yourself.  Would if I had a clue how.

 Some of the FreeBSD developers thought about a version control system
 at FreeBSD-Con. It's in development (I believe), or it's at least
 planned. It's much work, so please be patient :)
 
 This is really not something for a PR, please close.
