Old /etc files back, or cvs error?

Lately I've installed a couple of test systems from 7.1-RELEASE CDs, 
then csupped to RELENG_7 from cvsup9:

*default host=cvsup9.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_7
*default delete use-rel-suffix

mergemaster adds a *lot* of old files in /etc that were not there in 
7.1-RELEASE.  (Remember the rc.d rework?  Like that.)  For example, a 
bunch of bluetooth files and /etc/isdn/*.

The version numbers and dates in mergemaster look wrong.  For example, 
/etc/bluetooth/hcsecd.conf:

# $Id: hcsecd.conf,v 1.1 2003/05/26 22:50:47 max Exp $
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/bluetooth/hcsecd.conf,v 1.3 2006/05/18 17:53:49 emax Exp $

Shouldn't that be 1.3.6.1 from Tue Nov 25 02:59:29 2008?

The latest entries for files in /etc/isdn are 9 months old, and were 
removals.

This looks like an error, but maybe I'm missing something.  And other 
cvsup mirrors seem to agree with cvsup9.
