It is possible to download and use ports from the FreeBSD repository that
are newer than the installed system; however it is important to install
the appropriate ``Upgrade Kit'' from http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/ first!
The portcheckout(1) (ports/devel/portcheckout) script (also a port, of

[/code]
The portcheckout is now in ports/ports-mgmt/portcheckout
