You can specify multiple pseudo-ports together with real ports and even
use logical statements with and/or/not.

For example:
  sudo port upgrade outdated and not \( vim bash \)
    => This would upgrade all outdated ports except vim and bash.

The error message you are seeing only appears if expanding *all* of the
given port arguments returns an empty set. By default, lists without
operator are assumed to be concatenated by the 'or' operation.

Maybe the error message should be:
  $ sudo port upgrade {portlist}
  Error: '{portlist}' did not match any ports

That should fit all needs, right?
