After the introduction of stage in the ports collection some time ago, 
portupgrade has on more than one occasion failed to update installed 
ports, mainly due to added dependencies which do get compiled but not 
installed. I'm tempted to suggest the temporary installation in the 
staging area confuses portupgrade to believe the new dependencies are 
installed in their final resting place.

Here's one instance I actually wrote down:

During upgrade of x11/lixcb the other day, portupgrade failed to 
handle the requisite x11/xcb-proto properly and manual intervention 
was required, i.e.:

portupgrade -Nfprv x11/xcb-proto && portupgrade -fprv x11/libxcb

During the same session, x11/libX11 depended on x11/xtrans and 
devel/xorg-macros, both which had never been installed on the system 
prior to this moment, and a simple portupgrade -fprv x11/libX11 failed 
to do its job, manual intervention became necessary once again:

portupgrade -Nfprv x11/xtrans devel/xorg-macro && portupgrade -fprv x11/libX11

Does anyone else have an opinion/suggestion?

	Well since Linux is a kernel and FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD and
DragonflyBSD are all complete OSs in order to be correctly called Linux
they's have to switch to using Linux as the kernel. There have been builds
of the FreeBSD userland running on a Linux kernel, they weren't noticably
popular. So I'd say that this assertion has been proven false.
