If you haven't already I can recommend reading the following chapter in the Handbook http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cutting-edge.html I'd never attempted building the source on FreeBSD or used CVSUP before reading this chapter. It contained everything that was required. There is a specific section on using make buildworld and the correct procedure for rebuilding a FreeBSD machine. Phil.
