Except that the freebsd-update(8) man page includes the following:

DESCRIPTION

     The freebsd-update tool is used to fetch, install, and rollback =
binary
     updates to the FreeBSD base system.  Note that updates are only =
available
     if they are being built for the FreeBSD release and architecture =
being
     used; in particular, the FreeBSD Security Team only builds updates =
for
     releases shipped in binary form by the FreeBSD Release Engineering =
Team,
     e.g., FreeBSD 7.3-RELEASE and FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE, but not FreeBSD
     6.3-STABLE or FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT.


In other words, you can't use it to track -STABLE or -CURRENT.

Cheers,

Paul.
