I'll second Mark's recommendation to re-install rather than attempt
a source upgrade.

Note that, whilst your 4.x ports tree will continue to work with 7.x
(assuming you have the relevant compat4x libraries), you will need to
do a complete ports rebuild as soon as you upgrade any port (pretty
much).  (Otherwise, you will wind up linking against different versions
of the same system libraries - a recipe for disaster).
