security patch vs. binary upgrade

Okay, another question on this topic.

Take the situation that I upgrade my base system for the next major release.
What is going to happen with all the other ports? Must I reinstall literally
everything? This means I must recompile all the source ports, and reinstall
all the binary packages?

Is there any tool for this?

Btw... how can I update the source port tree?

Thanks,
