Thanks Patrick!

:-)

1.) How do you know if a patch applies just to the kernel? For
example, I'm looking at the security advisory 2010-09-20
FreeBSD-SA-10:08.bzip2 (
http://security.freebsd.org/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-10:08.bzip2.asc ),
but it isn't clear to me if it applies to just the kernel or...???

2.) If the problem IS just related to the kernel, I just do: csup +
make buildkernel + make installkernel, right?
