 * Is there a reason we use different tags the the src/ tree? Just curious.

These are not "release engineering" tags.  We don't guarantee anything
about the tags in the ports tree like we do in src (you move stuff
around, the tags still appear in the right place, etc.).  So don't
give people the illusion that it means much more than just a snapshot
tag that might have been screwed up in a few months after some
repository copies.

Or something like that.  Peter gave the reason in a long mail a while
ago.  I'll dig it up if you are interested.
