Installed some packages that you didn't expect. I personally do the 
equivalent of

cd /usr/ports
make search name=??

before I ever add a port or package. Cvsup requires some build and run 
dependancies for it to work. Less if you use the non-gui version. If 
they were already installed, the make would have just built cvsup.
