You're not getting any of the "source" collections this way and you have
unnecessarily trimmed useful defaults.

Just copy stable-supfile somewhere and change RELENG_5 to RELENG_6.
This should be the only change you need.

Then, you can fire up cvsup with:

	# cvsup -h cvsup10.FreeBSD.org my-supfile
