Yep. You're using the cvs-supfile, which does not update the source tree, but 
makes a cvs repository copy.
You will now have:
/usr/src/src
/usr/src/CVSROOT-*
/usr/src/doc
/usr/src/ports
/usr/src/www
/usr/src/sup

You should delete those, using rm -rf.

Next:
1) cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile /etc/
2) sed -i.bak -e 's/CHANGE_THIS/cvsup.de/' /etc/stable-supfile
3) csup -L2 /etc/stable-supfile
4) cd /usr/src

Now rebuild world and kernel as you've done before. You will want to run 
mergemaster as mergemaster -iU.

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
    and never get to the software part.
