Hi Attila,

I've had that problem in the past. I think if I took the time to understand hg better the issue would be pretty clear. I solvedthe problem by recreating my local source repo (and added the instructions for doing this as comments in update.sh). Since then I have not had any errors where I couldn't update because of local changes.

There have been times when the bsd-port code hasn't built properly for a while on 10.5 but that isn't the case now.

I just built the latest bsd-port w/mlvm patches and it seems to work.

I've uploaded a copy here:
