Yes, patch already applied.

No, cvsup only downloads sources.  You need a telnet username/password
from Marc to use cvs for updates.

From src/tools/FAQ_DEV:

There are several ways to obtain the source tree. Occasional developers can
just get the most recent source tree snapshot from ftp.postgresql.org. For
regular developers, you can get CVSup, which is available from
ftp.postgresql.org too. CVSup allows you to download the source tree, then
occasionally update your copy of the source tree with any new changes. Using
CVSup, you don't have to download the entire source each time, only the
changed files. CVSup does not allow developers to update the source tree.
