What was the point in creating RELENG_4_5 branch if RELENG_4 is still frozen? I thought that creating RELENG_4_5 branch would automatically unlock RELENG_4. At least, that's the feeling I've got from reading releng.html, and this is the way it worked before. 2. There were two simultaneous commits to the RELENG_4 and RELENG_4_5 branches for gnu/usr.bin/groff/tmac/mdoc.local by murray, and only RELENG_4_5 commit was marked as being ``Approved by: re'', in support of my feeling. 3. I saw multiple commits to the RELENG_4 branch of src/UPDATING by imp without the ``Approved by: re'' bit that also support my feeling.
