I never succedded SUPing. Time out too easily occurred when I tried to
connect a NetBSD SUP server located overseas. So I use anoncvs whenever
I need to update the local sources to the latest.

Whether it can be done automatically by cron is different problem.
Fetching sources via anoncvs also can be automated with ease.

Yes. netbsd-1-5 branch is not so frequently updated compared to -current.
