Well.. Some people always cvsup across major releases, I do not. My rules
are as follows:

	1) CVSUP through all minor version numbers.
	2) Clean install through all major version numbers.

I'm a fan of cleaning everything out every year or so though, some people
differ, but this is the way I do it. :)
