I'm currently using sup to track -current and packages tree. Coming
from FreeBSD, i used to use cvsup to do the same thing and i find it
more convenient (and faster for my 56k dial line).

I've tried to do so with NetBSD but there are some issues i don't know
how to solve...

For all my examples, i'm using the following config file template:

*default host=cvsup.uk.NetBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=.
*default delete use-rel-suffix

*default compress

netbsd-COLLECTION

where COLLECTION can be 'doc', 'pkgsrc', 'basesrc', 'syssrc', 'gnusrc'
and 'sharesrc'.

It's ok with the doc and pkgsrc collections: /usr/doc and /usr/pkgsrc are
updated. 

The problem is with the others collections as cvsup create
/usr/basesrc, /usr/syssrc, etc. instead of checking against existing
/usr/src, /usr/src/sys, etc. What i want is a ready-to-build tree,
updated with cvsup. Is it possible or not ?
