RELENG_2_2 is later than 2.2.1-RELEASE. RELENG_2_2
corresponds to the 2.2.x stable track. (See
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook267.html#cvsup:config:vers)

So if you cvsup with

tag=RELENG_2_2

you do get up to date on the stable track. I used

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile

and

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src/share/examples/cvsup/secure-stable-supfile

to get me started. But see
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook263.html to get you
started. As I write, a

make world

is in progress on my newest FreeBSD box, taking me from the
2.2.6 I installed yesterday to the lastest stable stuff.

Cheers,
Adam.
