It only claims, but it doesn't bring you -CURRENT. That's the reason why it should not be renamed. The standard-supfile contains the standard tag of your release to keep it up to date. Maybe someone will change this sentence in standard-supfile to 'This file contains all of the "CVSup collections" that make up the FreeBSD-stable source tree.' soon.
