You should see three cvsup sessions:
a) Using SUPFILE (all sources except crypto)
b) Using SUPFILE1 (crypto stuff)
c) Using PORTSSUPFILE (the ports)
These variables are set in /etc/rc.conf. It's your job to make sure that
they're pointing to the correct files and that the files are valid cvsup
configuration files for the intended purpose.

I'm using this setup for a long time and it works.

That's one of the things I don't like. And I can't understand why a "make
update" should include the ports but not /usr/doc. Which is another reason
why I don't like this behaviour.

I've hacked my Makefiles to include the update for the /usr/doc -- and to
check NOPORTUPDATE and NODOCUPDATE. Their effects should be obvious.

Patch (relative to -current) available on request, I'll file a PR after
4.0-RELEASE.

honesty on your own part, is the best policy. That and torture.
