Cvsup doesn't know about the ports distfiles; they are not stored in
the repo.  I guess a full set (if you could ever get one; there are
always a number of unfetchable distfiles) would require a couple of
dozen gigabytes of space.

BTW, you can easily put a modern ATA disk in an Ultra 5:

des@ultra ~% uname -a
FreeBSD ultra.des.no 5.2-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT #7: Thu Jan 15 13:46:4=
3 CET 2004     des@ultra.des.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ultra  sparc64
des@ultra ~% dmesg | grep ata

(OK, so a DTTA isn't exactly modern, but you get the idea.)
