	That's fine, but until you had mentioned the share.tar.gz 
tarball, I had never read anywhere that when updating from 1.5.2-REL 
to 1.5-CURRENT that you needed to download any tarballs at all.  The 
documentation I found (at 
<http://www.mclink.it/personal/MG2508/nbsdeng/chap-cvs.html#AEN4890>) 
simply says:

To get the sources from scratch without having anything in /usr/src
% setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot
% cd /usr
% cvs login
password: anoncvs
% cvs checkout -rnetbsd-1-5 -PA src

Or do it by ssh, so that the data is
encrypted:
% setenv CVS_RSH ssh
% setenv CVSROOT anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot
% cd /usr
% cvs checkout -rnetbsd-1-5 -PA src

This will fetch the source from the 1.5 release branch.  To obtain 
the current source just omit "-rnetbsd-1-5" in the last line.

		-and-

To just update the 1.5 release source tree if you already got one:
% setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot
% cd /usr
% cvs login
password: anoncvs
% cvs -d $CVSROOT update -rnetbsd-1-5 -PAd src

Or by ssh:
% setenv CVS_RSH ssh
% setenv CVSROOT anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot
% cd /usr
% cvs -d $CVSROOT update -rnetbsd-1-5 -PAd src

To update the 1.5 current source tree, omit the
"-rnetbsd-1-5"


	There is no mention anywhere here of needing to download any tarballs.
