Mine doesn't. Does that mean that my cvsup to RELENG_4_5 didn't work? The first answer seems to say that it appears to have worked, the second implies that it didn't. Any help appreciated on figuring out if my RELENG_4_5 cvsup and build/install world/kernel actually got me to the latest patch level.
