5-STABLE doesn't exist yet. The upcoming 5.3-RELEASE is planned as
the first 5-STABLE release. See

I'm not sure what you are getting at here. CVSup talks directly to a
CVS repository and so you get to see commits shortly after they are
made. CTM generates update batches every 8 hours and relies on CVSup
to access the master repository. CVSup is always going to be more
up-to-date than CTM.
CVSup also allows you to pick arbitrary CVS tags, wheres CTM is
limited to RELENG_3, RELENG_4 and head. If this is a problem, use CTM
to replicate the repository and do your own checkout.

Because 5-STABLE doesn't exist yet. I'm sure that once it exists,
you'll be able to get a CTM feed.
