 Hi.
 This one can be closed.
 Currently net/csup retrieves the source code from original author's
 website, but the tarball there hasn't been actively maintained since
 it's been imported to FreeBSD source tree.  So as long as we stick
 with the original author's source tree, I guess there's little to no
 chance of getting anything fixed upstream.  One could change net/csup
 to retrieve scontrib.?? files from the FreeBSD release image on one
 of FTP mirrors(which eats up about 50MiB on your harddisk) -- but frankly,
 I've lost interest in csup/cvsup, so I'm not going to submit a patch
 to do it.
 
 Thank you for your time and attention.
