I don't know where you heard that 2.2.5.1 was due shortly, but this
information was in error.  I have no intention of releasing a point
release and am going to rely instead on
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.5/ERRATA.TXT and its associated
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.5/updates/ directory to spread
the word on security issues and errata.

Keep an eye on that space.
