IMHO, the usual procedure described in handbook will satisfy 95% of
upgrade scenarios. Others can install compat6x port right after (or
before) reboot.

In any case, be free to try whatever scenario works for you, but I would
~ not like to be the one who inherits server with such 'messy-upgrade' :|
