It depends on which version you are looking at the source of. 
In the release/security branches (RELENG_5_4, etc.) all security
patches (like this one) are noted in UPDATING.  For the development
branches (RELENG_5 , -CURRENT) security patches usually don't get
mentioned.

I.e. if you are looking at the source for RELENG_5_4 there is a notice
in UPDATING, if you are looking at the source for RELENG_5 there is
not.  In this particular case there probably should have been a note
added to UPDATING for both -STABLE and -CURRENT, but there wasn't.
