I also used the mentioned directions but changed the tag to RELENG_6_1
before beginning the process.  Here are the contents of my standard-supfile:

# cvsup -g -L 2 standard-supfile
*default host=cvsup3.us.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/var/db
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_6_1
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
src-all

The process went smoothly, shows my kernel recompiled today, but like
the initial poster, it shows 6.0-RELEASE in the uname -a output:

FreeBSD xtop.xnet.local 6.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE #0: Mon May 15
08:14:54 CDT 2006     cross at xtop.xnet.local:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC
 i386

I followed the directions to a "t" minus the custom kernel.  I just
recompiled the kernel w/o the KERNCONF= parameters.  Have I done
something incorrect also?  Do some CVS servers by chance not have the
upgraded source?  I will try this again in a little while but don't
really want to take the time if my results will be the same in the end.

Any ideas?
