--- Comment #2 from Xin LI <delphij at FreeBSD.org> ---
My understanding is that you can't upgrade from a -STABLE (or -CURRENT) with
freebsd-update.  You should either upgrade by source, or update your system to
a releng/ or release/ version via source, then use freebsd-update.

An alternative would be to extract base.txz/kernel.txz from a release iso and
overwrite your system with the contents (except etc/ needs to be merged).
