I've been bugged to compile some things for RELENG_4 boxes. Due to administrative fiat, I have to compile externally and ship them the results, no login. So in general, how do I use my RELENG_8 boxes to compile apps that will run on RELENG_4? Similarly, how can I make buildworld/buildkernel/release for RELENG_4 on RELENG_8? I have RELENG_4 sources on disk, but of course things don't compile/run right. Going forward is easy, I've just no idea how to go backwards :)
