Then why can't you see it with uname? is because the uname reflects the kernel-level situation. Just executing freebsd-update does not touch the system kernel, but the system has actually been upgraded. Then, to be able to reflect on the "uname-a", you need to follow the following command:

Mail#cd/usr/src

Mail#make Buildkernel Kernconf=yourkernel

Mail#make Installkernel Kernconf=yourkernel

Mail#reboot
