5.X (X < 5) is no longer supported.  4.X secteam support ends Jan. 31,
2007.  (http://www.freebsd.org/security/index.html#adv)  The ports team
will try to keep the infrastructure going for a while
(http://www.freebsd.org/portmgr/policies_releng_4.html).

We've already told people that 4.X is no longer suitable for a desktop
due to GNOME having dropped support for it.  For servers, starting in
February, they should use the mailinglist freebsd-eol for community support.
