I cvsupped -stable today on four machines (GAMMA made my brain hurt
too much) with no troubles; really convenient method of updating
everything.  The sup took about 10 minutes, then a new kernel and a make
world with *absolutely* no troubles.  A uname -a shows this:

FreeBSD oscar.inch.com 2.1.7-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.1.7-RELEASE #0: Tue Feb 11
12:37:47 EST 1997     spork@oscar.inch.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/OSCAR
i386

ps- grab the cvsup bins on freefall; the mod-3 libs take quite some time
to compile...  Also, someone put a really nice cvsup entry in the handbook
that was a great help in doing this so quickly.
