portupgrade and binary packages

Hi everyone,
I recently tried to switch from compiling everything myself from ports, to
use portupgrade -PP package_name.
However, after having run CVSUP on my ports tree, I run into the problem,
that the binary packages from ftp.something.freebsd.org are far behind the
version in the portstree.
After a little bit of digging, I found out that
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-current/ has much
newer binary packages.
However it stills is a bit behind?
What is the solution to this problem, or is there none? I would really
like to avoid compiling things...
Cheers,
