Because there is no -current or -beta suffix in the kernel version
pkg_add doesn't know to use the snapshots directory. That is why
you need to use -Dsnap. This happens at the end of every release
cycle before the final packages are built.

Really ? I don't remember having to do this when using
the -current back then.
If so then shouldn't it feature in the second example
given in the upgrade.site manpage ?

At least, I don't know how but the sysupgrade and pkg_add
eventually worked.
