>Description:
Previously, running something like
# portupgrade -wfuc '<2013-12-31T13:37:00'
allowed the following:
- All ports were rebuilt (and reinstalled), with the then-used compiler, compiler version, and compiler flags.
- During the rebuilding proces, the system was mostly operational as a desktop environment.
- If some ports failed to build, I could fix them locally, and continue (as opposed to restart) the building procedure by rerunning the same portupgrade command.

Now it appears that portupgrade's "<YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss" is broken
- when pkgng is used, or
- in a recent version of portupgrade.
Any date specification causes all ports to be rebuilt (regardless of installation date).
