You can see what they changed at
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/kern/vfs_subr.c.diff?r1=1.249.2.28&r2=1.249.2.29&f=h
It is pretty simple and gives you the full path into your local
/usr/src/ directory. If you only change the line with the problem, you
can rebuild and install your kernel. Technically, if you recvsup, you
are supposed to rebuild everything.
As to your subscription, send "which" to the majordomo. It will tell
you if you are still subscribed. If you aren't currently subscribed,
you need to re-subscribe.
There were a number of people that were causing email bounces because
of problems with their mail-boxes. Their subscriptions get deleted
fairly quickly when this happens.
