Just two questions:

1. Why must you run -CURRENT?
2. Did you "make build|install kernel|world" after the cvsup?
   If everything was successful, then you simply have to shift your base
   from freebsd-question to freebsd-current mailing list!

A better advise for you: There is 5.3-BETA1 out there on the ftp
servers. Wipe clean your drive, get this BETA and install it. You can
then ask questions related to it on this list.
