It can also be that "RELENG_8_2" respectively "releng/8.2" is meant  
(to speak in VCS terms), or 8.2pX if you want to stay in the  
user-visible version terminology. I agree that this does not make  
sense in this context, but in the global FreeBSD context I've seen use  
of it like this too.

Bye,
