Please add another

freebsd-update install

for the user-space.

> But freebsd-update fetch suggests I'm already at p13:

Yes.

> So has the update p12 -> p13 succeded?

I think, yes.

Use

freebsd-version

to compare. Some updates only change userspace, not kernels and
uname stays on the old patch level. Yes, annoying, not trivial to fix.
