Thanks for the speedy reply, Sheldon. 
Then it is as I suspected, they are different.
I will use cvsup.  So this evening I did a
cd /usr/src then make buildworld.  this ran
for a couple hours then I did a make installworld.
that ran for about a half hour.  now i am rebuilding
and rebooting the kernel.  in the future, how do I
just update my sources with cvsup changes and only recompile
those sources affected?  make world wipes out and rebuilds
everything.  do I make update or just make or what?
