Would something like this work for you?

        # mount /mnt/floppy
        # mtree -c -K cksum,flags -p . | \
          bzip2 -9c - > /mnt/floppy/src.dist.bz2
        # umount /mnt/floppy

Then you can mount the floppy disk and check the /usr/src tree against
the checksums saved by mtree with:

        # mount /mnt/floppy
        # bunzip2 -cd /mnt/floppy/src.dist.bz2 | \
          mtree -u -f -
        # umount /mnt/floppy

Any differences of the files since your last CVSup should be easy to
catch with this little trick.  I've just tested this on my -CURRENT
installation and the bzip2'd spec file generated by the first mtree
invocation is a little less than 600 KB for /usr/src.  It fits nicely
in a single floppy disk :-)
