Right, that is exactly what I was referring to. 9.0-RELEASE is one of
those as far as I know.

It is ambiguous as to if that means being upgraded from or to and the
error message given does not indicate what is being upgraded from is
not supported, so I am a bit confused on if this is to be expected or
not.

From the man page:

"... the FreeBSD Security Team only builds updates for releases shipped
in binary form by the FreeBSD Release Engineering Team"

I know it can't be used to update to stable, but I've not encountered
any thing in the documentation saying it can't be used to update from
stable it to a release.

freebsd-update doesn't support development branches, you have to go
from security branch to security branch.
