freebsd stable - Dec 2014 - wrong patchlevel after freebsd-update install?

On 10.0-RELEASE-p12 amd64 I updated to p13 as:

freebsd-update fetch
freebsd-update install
reboot

However, uname still shows the old patchlevel:

# uname -a
FreeBSD 001cc0f01814.anet.bris.ac.uk 10.0-RELEASE-p12 FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE-p12
#0: Tue Nov  4 05:07:17 UTC 2014     root at
amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64
#

But freebsd-update fetch suggests I'm already at p13:
 
# freebsd-update fetch
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 5 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 10.0-RELEASE from update5.freebsd.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Inspecting system... done.
Preparing to download files... done.

No updates needed to update system to 10.0-RELEASE-p13.
#

So has the update p12 -> p13 succeded?

Please clarify

Thanks

Anton

Please add another

freebsd-update install

for the user-space.

Yes.

I think, yes.

Use

freebsd-version

to compare. Some updates only change userspace, not kernels and
uname stays on the old patch level. Yes, annoying, not trivial to fix.

What does "freebsd-version" report?  If it returns 10.0-RELEASE-p13
then your freebsd-update succeeded.

It's my understanding that uname only gets updated when freebsd-update
updates the kernel.  I think that's why freebsd-version was introduced.
