Hello Qing,

Seems I've missed that thread, thank you for pointing it out.

I was using csup to track RELEN_8_0 branch. Currently I'm syncing to
RELENG_8.

If I understood you right, after getting the sources for RELENG_8, I need to
apply the patch and then rebuild world?

Thanks and regards,
Marin
