FreeBSD atleo2.leo.org 4.3-STABLE FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE #2: Mon Apr 23 13:07:24 CEST 2001     root@atleo2.leo.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ATLEO2  i386

>Description:
The old a.out boot-blocks in /usr/src/sys/i386/boot 
are still tagged with RELENG_4 and sub-release tags, thus
causing them to be included in the stable source tree, although
they have been removed by peter, since /usr/src/sys/boot/i386
is now the new bootstrap. 
Not a real problem, but confusing. I accidentally built 
and installed the old bootstrap causing some problems.

>How-To-Repeat:
Well:
1. cvsup your -STABLE source tree
2. ls /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/biosboot (e.g.)

>Fix:
I guess, removal of Release Tags downto the release when the
new bootstrap was available could do the trick ?
