I would consider the upgrade process as a separate task.
Especially if the database has a history of previous upgrades there's plenty
of things that can go wrong during catpugrd without having the additional
catcpu changes messing around with your data dictionary.
I always do the upgrade itself first, then apply any additional patches
(only exception being interim patches for known bugs occurring during the
upgrade process)
