Yes I did upgrade via cvsup, and I did update using what is stated in UPDATING.
cd /usr/src
make buildworld..........then after 10hrs
make buildkernel KERNEL=GW
make installkernel KERNEL=GW
Then from the manual I updated /dev, ran mergemaster and installed all of 
the updated files, and updated /stand/sysinstall.
I went into single user mode I think after the installkernel.

Its only been my third time upgrading since my induction to the daemon way, 
but I haven't had a problem till now.......
