	You already have (achieved this): ports is (still) not brnched as src
	is.  We use the head of the ports tree for all branches of FreeBSD.

I don't think it's true.
While still on 9.1 ports, the latest
entry in UPDATING was (well I lost it now)
about NOV-2012. I believe the revision was
also substantially lower.

AS soon as I switched to head,
the latest entry in UPDATING is from 
6-FEB-2013 and the revision is 311942.

Or maybe I misunderstood you?
