>Description:
Not sure if this is a bug, but freebsd-update

- offers 3 old files
- claims that they need to be updated.

The files are:
/usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh
/usr/src/sys/kern/kern_descrip.c
/usr/src/sys/kern/uipc_syscalls.c

Versions from cvsup.freebsd.org:
/usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh 1.69.2.15.2.4
/usr/src/sys/kern/kern_descrip.c 1.279.2.15.2.1
/usr/src/sys/kern/uipc_syscalls.c 1.221.2.4.4.1

Versions from freebsd-update:
/usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh,v 1.69.2.15.2.3
/usr/src/sys/kern/kern_descrip.c 1.279.2.15
/usr/src/sys/kern/uipc_syscalls.c 1.221.2.4

IMO freebsd-update must not offer files older than the installed ones.
