I've read about portupgrade on some other occations too. I have been using another alternative for a long time.
This does the trick for me:
pkg_version > update
vi update #edit as necessary, for ports you don't want to upgrade, etc
chmod 700 update; ./update
Am I missing something? This has been a feature of pkg_version for quite some releases.

the trick of course, is
pkg_version -c > update,
not simple pkg_version > update.

portupgrade -R only upgrades the packages you _need_ upgrade, where with pkg_version -c you would have a lot of editing to do.

note the difference between -R and -r:
-r
--recursive Do with all those packages depending on the given
packages as well.
-R
--upward-recursive Do with all those packages required by the given
packages as well. (When specified with -F, fetch
recursively, including the brand new, uninstalled
ports that an upgraded port requires)
