freebsd-update & userland sources

[Tom Mende]

Is there a way to get freebsd-update to keep userland sources up to  
date?

I had thought that having src, world and kernel as components in the  
freebsd-update.conf file would do this but it doesn't seem to. Do I  
just add usr.bin and usr.sbin to the components list in the conf file  
and run freebsd-update or is it more complex than this? I have read  
the man pages on this but there must be a gap between my english and  
how the man pages are written because I'm obviously missing the point  
somewhere.

By way of background, I am trying not to use csup / cvsup and like  
processes as their past, admittedly incorrect, usage by me, combined  
with my incompetent salvage operations, has hosed my systems to the  
point of needing to be reinstalled from scratch. I have been using a  
combination of portsnap and freebsd-update to keep my 7.2-RELEASE  
system up to date and commenced this at about 6.3-RELEASE and have  
managed to not hose the system since that time. It now however appears  
I need to have userland sources to keep fusefs-kmod up to date.

/usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-kmod>make install clean
===>  fusefs-kmod-0.3.9.p1.20080208_6 requires the userland sources to  
be installed. Set SRC_BASE if it is not in /usr/src.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-kmod.

<snip from Makefile>
.if !exists(${SRC_BASE}/sbin/mount)
IGNORE=         requires the userland sources to be installed. Set  
SRC_BASE if it is not in /usr/src
.endif
<snip from Makefile>

I have got around this by manually downloading the fusefs- 
kmod-0.3.9.p1.20080208_6.tbz, pkg_adding it, and then forcing the  
packages that have this pkg as a dependency to portupgrade with the -f  
option. Now portupgrade hits this pkg warning message (IGNORE msg)  
everytime it runs.
