Hi, Pat...

I think you grabbed the cvsup source, right? I grabbed the bnary out of
/packages-current, and everything was cool. (I too didn't want to install
modula3 [ick]). If you are going to run it on a FreeBSD machine that's
reatively current, you should be ok.

Good luck (and trust me, i felt the same way about sup, but i changed my
tune.. cvsup is *so* much nicer in many different ways... check out
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/ for the equivalent to the supfiles, and the
comments explain how best to use it)
