I saw this too, when attempting to launch a live filesystem
from it.  It seems a bit strange because DVD has a special
"CD_VERSION =3D any" in its /cdrom.inf.  The reasoning for this
is because the disk also contains the 5.0-CURRENT snapshot.

This seems to be a matter of the missing NO_LATEST_LINK in
ports/emulators/linux_base-6, and because linux_base-6 is listed
after linux_base in ports/emulators/Makefile.
