Yes.  My error.  I did not completely remove 8.2-RELEASE when I edited
pkgtools.conf the 2nd time.  I introduced this error when I typed the
fetch command.  Sorry.

My original problem still exists: portupgrade fails with any out-of-date
package.  I should have sent the console output the first time...

I restored pkgtools.conf to the original version, from the initial
installation.

Here is the output of the portupgrade attempt:
