	Sorry! I didn't actually check myself; if you've patched 
	UPDATING, great.

	BTW, I have some ideas how this entire issue of updating one's
	FBSD system can be done lots easier: say,  by doing essentially
	an ftp binary up-rev across major releases: 2 -> 3 or 3 -> 4.
	Then using a relatively simple build|install and mergemaster 
	moving within released.  

	Like everything else, it's a matter of time and prio....
