As I mentioned earlier, you want to sync to -HEAD as of the date of  
the patch. Try something like this:


$ more /usr/local/etc/cvsup-head
*default host=cvsup8.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=.
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default date=2008.08.13.00.00.00
*default compress
src-all
