Description Masachika ISHIZUKA 2016-07-25 01:33:08 UTC 
freebsd-update prior r302539 cannot update 11.0-* due to sanity check.

You must update freebsd-update to r302539 as follows.

% freebsd-version -ku
10.3-RELEASE-p4
10.3-RELEASE-p5
% su
# cd /usr/sbin
# cp -p freebsd-update freebsd-update.org
# patch < freebsd-update.sh.diff

 No that didn't fix it.  That change was in the EN which was applied and while the line numbers are different in 9.3, the extra character is in my copy.
