Have you looked at http://www.dragonflybsd.org/docs/upgrade-freebsd.cgi ?

I don't know if there is a way to know for certain that Apache2, Zope3,
. .. and Samba3 will continue to work as planned unless you go ahead and
try it.  DragonFlyBSD is a lot of fun though, so it *might* be worth the
risk???

FYI: The above link is for FreeBSD 4.9.
