When the process completed, uname -a showed 9.3. Since I need a custom kernel for this system and src is on the system, I then went and did a buildworld and buildkernel. After booting the new kernel, uname -a now shows 9.2 P10. I know that there were updates to the src files since freebsd-update listed a bunch of them and the previous kernel was 9.2-P8. So, what system do I have? Is this an issue with the version not showing correctly, or did the src directory not get updated properly? /usr/src still had 9.2 (and BTW, building world is not necessary for a custom kernel). I'm not surprised that freebsd-update didn't update source to 9.3 since it's on a different branch, but it sounds like freebsd-update updated source to the latest version of RELENG for 9.2 even though you told it to update to 9.3. If that is the case, it's a bug and you should file a PR.
