Upgrading 5.0 -> 5.1

Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out what options I have for upgrading from 5.0 to 5.1.  
Can I just use csvup to change my local copy of the source code, and 
recompile?  Ie do the same steps that I've done to upgrade after security 
announcements?  Would that just entail editing my standard-supfile to replace

*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5_0

with

*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5_1

and running csvsup, then compiling a new kernel?

I'd appreciate confirmation, cautions, or tips.  

Thanks!

Andrew
