Sorry for being too terse in my first post. Seems like I should have a closer
look at freebsd-update. "Of course" I have lines like this in my /etc/make.conf
on each machine that I update from sources:

	SUP_UPDATE=		yes
	SUP=			/usr/bin/csup
	SUPFLAGS=		-g -L 2
	SUPHOST=		cvsup2.de.freebsd.org
	SUPFILE=		/usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile
	PORTSSUPFILE=		/usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile

And yes, guilty of never ever re-evaluating that mechanism since FreeBSD 2.x.
The only change I ever made was replacing cvsup with csup, once the latter
became available. And I did not know "make update" had a default without
any configuration.
That's why I ask stupid questions about whatever it is people use nowadays.

Thanks,
Patrick
