In search of something more stable than 5.2.1-RELEASE on my laptop 
	Toshiba Satellite S5100-603
	http://berklix.com/~jhs/hw/toshiba/s5100-603/
	I have ACPI problems there: It will not boot with ACPI
	turned on, & mostly ignores fxp0: with ACPI turned off,
	(+ fear if ACPI off, maybe processor fan control may not work 
	optimally & processor might overheat ?) ...  & not wanting to go back to 4.x )
/pub/FreeBSD/branches/4.0-stable 	exists
/pub/FreeBSD/branches/5.0-stable 	does not.

cvs -R export -r RELENG_5_2            src
	produces a kernel that installs, boots single user, & reports
	5.2.1-p9, but hangs just after "Setting hostname" (OK, I
	havent done a make world yet, that;s now running single user)

Anyway, it seems those CVSUP users have a luxury we CTM users don't
have: they get to have a more recent kernel, why is that ?  Is it
lack of  human resources to config a new CTM feed, lack of generator
machine resources (I could contribute there) ?  or is it lack of
some CVS tag ?  (but if its lack of some CVS tag, how come those
CVSUP users get a P9, & we CTM users need to run cvs after receiving
the cvs tree by ctm, why can't we have a CTM 5 stable feed. The
cvsup folk already have something useful for them.
