>Description:
using cvsup (csup) to update the system
editing a cvs supfile to fetch a particular branch:
first tried CURRENT ( tag=. )
everything downloaded okay
started to "make buildworld"
exited error 1 at /usr/lib/libmagic
various warnings about unknown values or bounds
"...missing magic files..."

tried again with ( tag=RELENG_8 ) - exact same error
tried again with ( tag=RELENG_8.2 ) - exact same error

am sure it is an oversight on my part as i am only a systems user - 
not a programmer
