        1) It is _very_ important to keep the kernel and userland in
sync.
        2) 

huff@>> du -s /usr/src
442996  /usr/src

        As a ball-park estimate, figure 1Gb when you need to update.
        Assuming you have a high-speed connection, I would rebuild
world and kernel per the handbook.  After installing and testing the
new system I would save the kernel config file elsewhere and delete
/usr/src and /usr/obj.  THe next time you need to rebuild you'll
need to clear the disk and download the entire source tree, but
you'll have the disk available until then.
