There are those of us who consider the protocol switch a good change,
and a move forward. It seems excessive to wait for the switch to
5.0-RELEASE for this change, and somewhere between any two
4.X releases seems just about right.

IMO, if (at the *bare minumum*) you don't read and understand UPDATING
after cvsupping, don't track -STABLE. (It's always struck me as a bit
oxymoronic to apply POLA criteria to -STABLE).
