Upgrading x.org to 7.2 (to make other ports happy)

Hi,
Ok, last night I sit down to continue installing software on that web
server I mentioned a couple of days ago. By the way, the culprit was
definitely heat. Last night, I successfully recompiled the GENERIC
kernel for 6.2p5 without a hitch, and the day before I successfully
completed the "buildworld". Continuing on, after getting the system
caught up, I updated my ports tree using csup and proceeded to
portupgrade all installed ports (only about 5 at this time). However,
X.org is among them.
So, the portupgrade program is doing its thing I figure since it took
a little over an hour to compile all of X before, I was going to do
other things and so left the box to its own devices. I come back a
little later to find that I've got to update X.org according
/usr/ports/UPDATING. I open this file and read up on what it says.
In there it says I need to run a script called "xorg-upgrade" however,
this script does not exist on this box. I just finished a search on
www.x.org for "xorg-upgrade" with no results. So, where am I supposed
to get this script? The UPDATING file doesn't mention that.
