Should have been RELENG_4_4_0_RELEASE Anyway, I suspect that your problem is that source-level upgrades from 4.0 to 4.4 are not supported (or if they're supposed to be, they may be broken). I've cc'ed one of the developers who was working on it a while ago. In the absence of source upgrades being available, you'll have to do a binary upgrade (e.g. download the 4.4-RELEASE installation floppy and use the 'upgrade' option).
