You have allocated too little space on /usr (where /home also resides).

Probibly because of too little diskspace. Too little information to say for

cvsup. refer to man page of cvsup).

You are talking out of context.. What are you trying to do? (and please 
don't answer, please state the question to a FreeBSD mailinglist).

Ask a FreeBSD mailinglist.

I would guess diskspace is your problem. Ask a FreeBSD mailinglist.
