I grepped the entire /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf directory.  There is no

        /usr/src/sys/conf/NOTES is where I found it.

Grepped /usr/src/sys/conf/* and did not find it.

I see from google that something seems to have been added to HEAD and its
UPDATING, but there is nothing of the sort in 9.0 RELEASE - p4.

        It's there on my 9.0-RELEASE-p4 boxes. In /etc/freebsd-update.conf
do you have src among the components to update ?

I have never been able to get update to work.  I cvsup the source tree
(which I suppose is now really serviced by subversion).

I really should have known better by now than to upgrade to a X.0 -
perhaps by X.2 or X.3 they will have fix most of the stuff they broke
with X.0.

        I've yet to see any breakage, do your applications really break
with TERM=xterm on the console ?

Only the essential stuff: joe, most, lynx.  Of course things which do not
use any function keys (including the movement keys) are not affected.

Fortunately, I have learned enough to try upgrades on the mirror and not
on the production disc.

        Well yes - no untested updates should ever hit a production system,
that's what the QA boxes are for.

also the -V switch doesn't give such good results in mergemaster
