Hello, Matthew.

It says (on 9-STABLE):
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.
So, as far as I understand, it could not be used to track -STABLE
branch, as it was possible with csup. Nothing is say about possibility
to update "src" on stable branch with it. Is it possible and man page
needs to be updated?
