<para>Because of the many changes between 3.X and 4-STABLE,
a direct upgrade from source will probably fail. A source
upgrade can be done, but only in stages. First, upgrade
to the latest 3-STABLE (<literal>RELENG_3</literal>).
Then upgrade to 4.1.1-RELEASE
(<literal>RELENG_4_1_1_RELEASE</literal>). Finally,
upgrade to 4-STABLE (<literal>RELENG_4</literal>).</para>
<para>If you wish to upgrade using source, please see the <ulink

Handbook</ulink> for more information.</para>
