RELENG_8_2 is not a tag used on the ports. It only applies to the system sources. Also, there isn't a version of the ports specifically for 8.2-RELEASE. All there is, is a tag that marked the state of the ports tree at the time the 8.2-RELEASE media were created. That's mostly for bookkeeping purposes and not a coded hint that these are the ports you are looking fo= r. Seriously, just check out the HEAD revision of the ports. It has all the updates and fixes for problems that have been discovered since 8.2 came out. Usually for values of 'check out' that translate to 'use csup or portsnap to download' as that's a lot more efficient (not to say faster) than using plain cvs(1).
