packages for older 4.x systems

Hello!

I'm trying to install cvsup on an older system: 4.11-RELEASE-p3.

`pkg_add -r cvsup-without-gui' fails so I downloaded this file manually:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4-stable/net/cvsup-without-gui-16.1h_2.tgz

pkg_add fails too:
pkg_add: read_plist: bad command '@conflicts cvsup-[0-9]*'

I tried to install ports/sysutils/pkg_install (that was pkg_install-20050720.tar.gz),
but it didn't help.

So the question is, how do I pkg_add official binary packages on a
4.11-p3 box?
