I had /usr/src, but it was empty. I removed 'src' from the
freebsd-update-conf file & got the above. uname thinks I am still @ p10:
[root@kabini1, /etc, 10:44:24am] 333 % uname -a
FreeBSD kabini1.local 9.3-RELEASE-p10 FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE-p10 #0: Tue
Feb 24 21:28:03 UTC 2015
root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
[root@kabini1, /etc, 2:48:47pm] 334 %
