    Yup, that's what you'll get at the moment if you cvsup to RELENG_4
    (you'll get BRANCH="RC" if you cvsup to RELENG_4_10).

    Typically speaking RELENG_4 is a developer branch. The project tries
    to keep that branch as bug-free as possible but if you are going to
    track RELENG_4 it is best if you stay up on mail to this mailing list
    and that sort of thing. As of a few days ago RELENG_4_10 exists
    and what is on that will be what comes out as the final 4.10 release.

    At the point the 4.10 release is done RELENG_4 will start calling
    itself "4.10-STABLE".
