Gnome Upgrade on FreeBSD 5.3

I've just loaded FreeBSD 5.3 onto a multiple OS box and 
intend to load the GNOME desktop once I decided what 
components I need (assuming that is possible).

I CVSup'd my system and found that over 75% of the 
packages I installed needed upgrade including; 
gnome-icon-theme-1.2.3, gnomehier-1.0_19, 
gnomekeyring-02.1_1, gnomemimedata-2.4.1_2, and 
gnomevfs2-2.6.2_1.  Can I use portupgrade to upgrade 
these ports or is a special script necessary as was 
required with the recent GNOME desktop upgrades?

Thanks,
Bob Perry
