Since the package name you provide is a glob, portupgrade '*' should do
the trick (you need the quotes to stop your shell expanding it to the
contents of ./*)

It's probably a good idea to stick to upgrading specific things and
their dependencies though, i.e. portupgrade -rR <foo> so you can keep
track of what's happening.  This way is likely to expose redundant ports
by not upgrading them too :)
