A question arose from this thread:

What if:

a) I install a -RELEASE from cd
b) do an daily cron'd cvsup of stable sources
c) want to rebuild a new kernel
d) don't want to do a full make world

The new kernel I build will obviously be of -STABLE, yet userland will 
still be -RELEASE installed from cd.

Is it best to cvsup only if you're prepared to do a full `make world` and 
`make kernel` at the same time to keep userland and kernel both in sync?

Will I run into problems running a -STABLE kernel with -RELEASE userland 
binaries and libraries?
