But as with the recent settings and even with SVN_UPDATE set to YES in make.conf a simply "make update" typed in /usr/src will fail with a "svn not found" error, since the path to svn hasn't been properly set.
 > The file /usr/src/Makefile.inc1 reveals that there are to flags that could be set to target mainance via svn: SVN itself targetting the path to the svn binary and SVNFLAGS setting for the repository to be targeted. None of them are mentioned in make.conf(5) and I'd like to see some notes in make.conf(5) on that.
 
 The patch I sent to the thread on -current is attached.
