Just an anti-me too.

Static cvsup works perfectly for me (installed from ports cvsup-bin on
Sept 9th).

I run it both on my dumb terminal and on my X display.

(My X configuration is XFree86 3.3.5, Gnome/Enlightenment  [all built
Sept 9th after a make world]).

My shell is tcsh 6.09 (built Sept 1st).

I have never had cvsup-bin core dump.

I have built the world twice since the signal changes and am currently
running on my build which completed about 36 hours ago.

localhost# {8} cvsup -v
CVSup client, GUI version
Software version: REL_16_0
Protocol version: 16.0

"If it is true that our Universe has a zero net value for all conserved
quantities, then it may simply be a fluctuation of the vacuum of some
larger space in which our Universe is imbedded. In answer to the
question of why it happened, I offer the modest proposal that our
Universe is simply one of those things which happen from time to time."
 E. P. Tryon   from "Nature" Vol.246 Dec.14, 1973
