Given the serious stability issues that *some* users are having with 
5.3, many are sticking with 4.x for production servers.

Will FreeBSD keep the 4.x line alive for a little while longer? Perhaps 
going into 4.12, 4.13, etc?

I ask this only because I don't see a lot of communication to the list 
about these issues being addressed.
