FreeBSD jasper.nighttide.net 8.3-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 8.3-PRERELEASE #0: Sat Apr 21 15:32:34 EDT 2012     root at jasper.nighttide.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/JASPER  i386
>Description:
Did a source upgrade of a box running 8.2-STABLE to what was supposed to be 8.3-STABLE on 2012-04-21 after doing a csup.

csup conf:

*default host=cvsup9.us.freebsd.org
*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_8
*default delete use-rel-suffix
src-all
*default tag=.
ports-all

uname reports release 8.3-PRERELEASE rather then 8.3-STABLE.

I don't recall the build tag not changing after a release announcement but not sure I've done an upgrade so close to the announcement in the past so could be normal.
