It's seems that no one has answered this, so I'll give it a shot. The
answer is no... the operating system source tree is completely separate
from the ports tree. You can leave your operating system source at 4.5
release and still cvsup your ports tree daily. There is a great tool in
ports called "portupgrade"... it is great for installing and upgrading
ports... and also notifying you when you have installed ports that are
out of date.
