There was definitely some strange behavior, which I hope was due to
inconsistency with the zend thread safety option, where libraries
literally seemed to disappear after I had reinstalled them.

But I also discovered I needed to reinstall pecl- and pear- packages,
especially the latter. I think there's more to portupgrade than
appears in the man page and there's lots more to portupgrade than I
know, but I hope your script catches that. I'm saving it.
