RELENG_4_5 is currently 4.5-RELEASE with security fixes applied.  No new 
features.

RELENG_4 is known as -STABLE and is where you also see bug fixes and new 
features, before the next -RELEASE.

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/releng/article.html 
might explain this a bit better.
