well, that's the file I used. as I wrote, the file says
"the FreeBSD-current ports collection".
^^^^^^^^
now, my question is: is it ok, or have I done st similar to
updating userland and leaving kernel? won't there be any version
mismatches? you know, 4.3-RELEASE is a snapshot of the STABLE
branch, while CURRENT is the HEAD branch. I wouldn't bother
asking and would've cvsup'ed again from STABLE, but the note in
the handbook made me stop and ask.
