>Description:
freebsd-update upgrade fetches a fairly large set of files to upgrade a FreeBSD system from binaries.  These files go in to /var/db/freebsd-update by default, which on some systems is not large enough to house all of the files this command fetches. 

There is a command line switch to alter the directory used by freebsd-update, update the manpage to help users to recognize when they might need to use it.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a system with a 200 MB /var
# freebsd-update upgrade
>Fix:
Apply the attached patch
