I do not know if this has already been suggested, or what not but here it goes. I would suggest something like the ports section for upgrades to -RELEASE systems. That way the branch could die but relevant fixes could still be released. A possible setup would be like this, lets say 2.2-RELEASE comes out and is bundled with sendmail 8.8.10. Yet three days later there is a bug found in it. Any 2.2-RELEASE user could then go to /pub/FreeBSD/upgrades-2.2/sendmail download it, it would be similar to a port in structure, then just make it.
