freebsd-stable packages on freebsd-release-4.9

I upgraded my ports tree with cvsup using "." for the release so I
would get the latest ports. pkg_add -r downloads packages from
freebsd-release-4.9 and portupgrade -aPPR fails because it tries to
download packages with version numbers matching the ports tree from the
freebsd-release-4.9 directory. Compiling from ports give up to date
software. I know that ports only supports freebsd-stable and freebsd-
current, so is this what should be happening? Or should pkg_add -r be
in synch with ports. Is it possible to use freebsd stable packages on
freebsd-4.9, or do I need to always compile from ports?
