Well ... i do the build.sh routine every two weeks and rebuild everything
(kernel userland and X) ... after that (if the time permits) I usualy
cvs the latest pkgsrc and make update everything there as well, but that
usualy doesn't work just as it is and needs minor adjustments and hence
I skip it from time to time ;)
