If you want to switch to pre-MPSAFE TTY, please check out > revision r181904. Fair enough. If the need arises, it's easy to lay down a tag after the fact, by copying: svn copy svn+ssh://svn.freebsd.org/base/head@181904 \ svn+ssh://svn.freebsd.org/base/tags/pre-mpsafetty But since the initial commit was pushed to svn in one changeset, the need for that is a bit small I guess. Doing it later should also be ok too.
