In my /usr/src/asterisk dir, all I do is:

make upgrade
--> it connects to CVS and shows me all the new files it downloaded
make clean ; make install

That's it.  And when you do

CLI> show version

It should show you the latest date after the make upgrade.

I don't use the cvs command directly at all anymore unless the first 
time I'm downloading from cvs on that box.
