This is quite bizzare and I've never had any trouble with cvsup before.
The mailing list archives don't seem to suggest a fix either.  Here is
my supfile:

*default host=cvsup9.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
src-all

It's literally just taken out of /usr/share/examples/cvsup as I always
do.  Running cvsup on this file produces the following:

reef# cvsup -g -L 2 stable-supfile
Parsing supfile "stable-supfile"
Connecting to cvsup9.FreeBSD.org
Connected to cvsup9.FreeBSD.org
Server software version: REL_16_1
Negotiating file attribute support
Exchanging collection information
Establishing multiplexed-mode data connection
Running
Updating collection src-all/cvs
Shutting down connection to server
Finished successfully

And this is with an empty /usr/src!  This box cvsup's the ports
collection fine.  I tried changing tag to =. and see if I could get
-current sources, but I get the same behavior that way as well.  I have
also tried more than one cvsup mirror.  CVSup makes sure to create a
/usr/sup/src-all directory and populate it though.  /usr/src is still
empty.  I'm fixing to just suck it down via anoncvs, but I'd still like
to know if anyone has an inkling as to why this is happening.
