Not with -f, it'll rebuild everything again.

I would say that, if the previous run succeeded except for
XFree86-4-libraries and its dependents, the correct invocation would be:

portupgrade -fvr x11/XFree86-4-libraries

to force upgrading of XFree86-4-libraries and all installed ports that
depend on it.
