    the really best way t do this is to use cvsup
    to mirror teh cvs tree to somewhere you have locally..
    then check out a 4.x tree from that.
    edit it,
    and then ask it to produce a diff for you.
    If you do it right it will make a single diff that includes the new files..
    it will also allow you to merge in changes as they come in from FreeBSD,
    and regenerate
    current diff sets.

    I'm sure you mentionned this before, but why ar eyou not doing it
    against -current first?

    We generally don't allow changes to 4.x untill they have settled a bit
    in -current. (or 5.x)
