Here's a patch[1] that allows you to use portmaster when doing the python upgrade. I intend to commit this tomorrow morning unless someone speaks up. I'll also be adding the instructions to the UPDATING entry.
Once applied you should be able to use: cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages -DUSE_PORTMASTER It will be quite slow compared to using pkg_which (the normal method) so be patient. I've used this patch to upgrade one lightly used machine and I know at least one other person has survived an upgrade of a machine with over 1000 ports installed.
