The supfile above updates just about everything there is to update on 
the FreeBSD system: the system source tree, ports tree and 
documentation. If you only wanted to update ports, the following would 
have been enough:

--------------< cut >--------------
*default  host=cvsup12.FreeBSD.org
*default  base=/usr
*default  prefix=/usr
*default  release=cvs
*default  tag=.
*default  delete use-rel-suffix
ports-all
--------------< cut >--------------

If you don't want to upgrade the base system, you should delete 
everything under /usr/src and /usr/obj (make sure you copy your custom 
kernel configuration file from /usr/src/sys/i386/conf to somewhere else 
first) and re-install the original sources.
