What am I running?

[Ben Blonder]

I recently became aware of a security problem on my system (detailed at
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-02:08.exec.asc)

I installed FreeBSD 4.4 the first day it came out, so I think I'm running
4.4-RELEASE. However, the security advisory recommends solutions for
RELENG_4_4 or 4.4-STABLE.

My question: can I use a patch for one of those branches on my system or
will it muck something up?

Thanks in advance!
