Remove those two if you're doing an upgrade using the discs. If you're 
building the upgrade from source, you obviously can't do that. If adding 
a drive is an option, then it becomes easy - put /usr/ports /usr/src and 
/usr/obj on the new drive and be done with it.

If it helps any, here's some output from a 6.1RC:
