4.10 and 4.11 are from the STABLE-branch. As far as I know 5.2.1 was the
CURRENT-branch which let to the 1st STABLE 5 version FreeBSD 5.3 .

Quote from http://www.freebsd.org/security/index.html :
"Early adopter -
Releases which are published from the -CURRENT branch will be supported
by the Security Officer for a minimum of 6 months after the release."

As you found out yourself, RELENG_5_2 was never officially supported.
