Are you sure about your statement, "portupgrade doesn't work with
default ruby19"?

It seems to build fine for us:
http://pkgbox64.dragonflybsd.org/bulk/bleeding-edge-default/latest-per-pkg/portupgrade-2.4.12%2c2.log

It also builds fine on FreeBSD:
http://beefy2.isc.freebsd.org/bulk/10amd64-quarterly/latest-per-pkg/portupgrade-2.4.12,2.log

Also, portsmon is clean:
http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portoverview.py?category=ports-mgmt&portname=portupgrade

It appears your problem is local, not global.
(And no, you can't easily install ruby18 again)
