Basically, if you can't figure out how to upgrade to -current on your
own, you shouldn't be running it.  FreeBSD-CURRENT is for experienced
developers only; there are sharp edges, at any given moment some
things may not work, and you need to know how to recover from crashes
and catastrophic failures on your own without relying on technical
support.
