    This is wrong (see below).  Sorry about that!

    tag=. updates /usr/src to -CURRENT.  If you're tracking -STABLE,
you don't want that.  ("." means "take the HEAD revision.")

    /usr/ports doesn't make the distinction between -STABLE and
-CURRENT.  You want 

    ports-all tag=.

to make sure your ports collection is up-to-date.
