 Umm... What exactly is negative impact of using, for example,
tag=RELEASE_5_2_0 for getting ports collection which came with 5.2-RELEASE
via CVSup? Yes, I understand that I won't get fixes and improvements which
came after ports tree freeze and creation of RELEASE_5_2_0 tag. I don't
need them. What else should I be aware of? I've made it several times, then
compared CVSupped ports tree against fresh one which came with 5.2-RELEASE -
they are the same.

Sincerely, Dmitry
