man pkg is your friend ;-) I think.
/usr/bin/pkg image-update [-fnvq] [--be-name name] [--no-refresh]
[--no-index]
the interesting part is --be-name. So, I *think* you could do:
pkg image-update --be-name 111b2 from your 2008.11 be. This should
create a new be called 111b2 which is an update of your 2008.11 be.
Then when you want to move to 116, you can do the same thing (after
pointing at /dev of course instead of /release).
Cheers,
