--- Comment #7 from Ed Maste <emaste@freebsd.org> ---
This is a consequence of the way FreeBSD-update binary patches are built. The
patches from ENs/SAs are applied to the tree and new objects are built, and
UPDATING itself does not appear in any of those patch files - it is modified
only as the patches are committed to the tree.

We should indeed address this, perhaps as part of moving the FreeBSD-update
build infrastructure to use git (assuming this doesn't become OBE via pkgbase).
I have no expected timeline for this, though,
