I don't know of such a script, but what I did was:

1. Check out the git repository:
# cd /usr
# git clone http://git.xbsd.org/projects/xorg-exp.git xorg-modular-exp

2. Find differences:
do ls > m-i for each directory i in /usr/xorg-modular-exp/
do ls > d-i for each corresponding directory i in /usr/ports/

3. Merge-copy the modular tree into the main ports tree using the
attached script.

4. Uninstall the old xorg

5. Install the new xorg:
# cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg-complete
# make install clean

To update:

1. Update the tree:
# cd /usr/xorg-modular-exp
# git pull

Perform step 2 and 3 as above.

4. Something like portmaster -a

HTH,

Regards.
