Also, for the benefit of anyone else intending to upgrade from 11 to 12, 
a good tip is to install the compat11x-amd64 port /before/ attempting to 
upgrade.  That should help keep your stuff which is compiled for 11.x 
still running in a 12.x world no matter how rocky the rest of the 
upgrade process turns out.

Once the base OS and all you packages are updated, then you should be 
able to delete compat11x-amd64 without any consequences.
