Hello,

Need to upgrade to FreeBSD 4.9  so all my ports will run.  Not sure, 
however if
I want/need:

RELENG_4_9

    The release branch for FreeBSD-4.9, used only for security
    advisories and other critical fixes.

or,


RELENG_4_9_0_RELEASE

    FreeBSD 4.9

I understand that the Release tag references FreeBSD version at a given 
point in time, but is there a problem selecting RELENG_4_9, "...used
only for security advisories and other critical fixes."

Thanks
Bob Perry
