Upgrading to 15.0-ALPHA3 is not yet possible using freebsd-update, but it is
anticipated to become possible shortly. Users intending to test this are
encouraged to ensure they have good backups and carefully examine the output
of "freebsd-update upgrade" to ensure that it is working as intended, as this
has (at the time this announcement is being written) not yet been tested.
DO NOT USE FREEBSD-UPDATE TO UPGRADE TO 15.0-ALPHA3.
It will break your system by installing a new libc before it installs libsys.
We'll fix freebsd-update to install libraries in the right order but until
that patch (and resulting Errata Notice) comes out this isn't going to work.
