xorg 6.9-7.3 upgrade failure - assistance needed

Hi Jonathan,

I have a problem because I run first #portupgrade -Rr 'gstreamer*' and 
then portupgrade -a -x 'gstreamer*' and I could finish the upgrade (in 
my case from 6.9 to 7.2), so perhaps trying with portupgrade -a -x 
'gstreamer*', you could manage the already gstreamer ports installed.

After running this I got a stale dependency and I solved it it this way:

Stale dependency: bonobo-1.0.22_3->ghostscript-gpl-8.56_3 manually run 
'pkgdb -F' to fix or specify -0 to force

#pkgdb --Ff
It asks you to fix the dependencies, so you fix them.

Error: ghostscript --gpl not compatible with ghostscript-gnu

#portupgrade --o print/ghostscript-gpl ghostscript-gnu


Then, I followed with the commands indicated in the /usr/ports/UPDATING.
