    So, I installed 4.1 on my machine, and then decided to upgrade to
4.2.  Following some instructions I read on this list, I went to
/usr/ports/net/cvsupit and ran "make install".

    it then downloaded all the new sources for 4.2, and a make
buildworld successfully upgraded the system.

    However, now my /usr/ports directory is completely hosed.  I cd
into any directory, and get an error about my port using an old layout
...

    if I go to cvsupit, and try to run that again to upgrade
everything, it won't run.

    Is there something I can do to get my system sane again? 

    Did I do something wrong in the first place by just running cvsupit
and choosing RELENG_4 as the new system release?

    Any thoughts appreciated.

    Thanks.

    marc.
