Thanks. Yes, I already figured this out, and compiled with the RELENG_4 tag.
:)

Yes, I wanted STABLE, because, allegedly, it has support for the Promise
8237 SATA controller I plan to use:

P.S. I added "ports-all" to my supfile; the entire ports tree got deleted;
but I did not get anything back! That was not cool. But I grabbed the entire
tar.gz from the FreeBSD website, and installed it manually again.

Everything seems fine again. Thanks again.
