Pointer to svnsup is fine; it seems I just missed to the first hint.

Well, for ports this is mostly fine, though on several places I prefer 
to use csup (or svn now) even for ports, since I maintain quite a set of 
local patches - this sometimes gives problems together with potsnap. 
Where this is neede, I have a shared ports tree anyway, so the whole svn 
setup is only needed in one machine.

But my main concern is the system sources anyway. freebsd-update is not 
feasible for me, as described in the original post.

Thank you,
