building from source after freebsd-update

[Alexandre L.]

Please read the handbook section related to the FreeBSD update tool
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html

freebsd-update is a binary update tool, so you haven't got anything to rebuild, except your custom kernel (if you are using one).
