I'll try that as soon as I figure out how.  I've never done it.

They all check out as the newest.  But since  XFree86-3.3.6_2 is not a
package I don't see how that would help.  Also since kde-1.94 expects a
XFree86-3.3.6_2 package how will cvsup'ing the ports (even if that
updates Xfree to 3.3.6_2) fix that? 
	Thanks for the pointers, any more would be muchly appreciated.
