well it may certainly be worth running on a test box to learn the new 
features, but even then you'd be better of catching -current at a stable spot 
and dealing with the vagaries that that involves.  A good way is to cvsup 
your source, and watch the -current mailing list for a day to see that no 
major instabilities are reported.  Then rebuild.  Or you could download a 
-current iso from:
http://snapshots.jp.freebsd.org/

Good luck,

Tim
