No, but 3.2.3 is out and you might just cvsup ports-all, rebuild the 
iindexes, download the packages from FruitSalad into 
ports/packages/All, delete the old 3.2.2 packages, and cleanly install 
the new ones. The packages at FruitSalad will out of date in a little 
while but right now they are as current as you can build.
