Ok, I need a cluepon.  The web site doesn't really distinguish "what you
get" between these two types of updating.

1) Using /stand/sysinstall, download the ports collection as described in
   the online docs.

2) Using the instructions described on the web page, update my
   ports-supfile and run CVSup.

Should either #1 or #2 produce the same results?  Or does #1 only grab what
was "released" as of the 4.5-RELEASE?

The reason why I ask is that CVSup appeared to have made changes to my
ports collection.

Thanks,

-Clint
