Oops, this is wrong.  RELENG_4 is the correct tag, but when you cvsup
a repository, you don't specify a tag, since the repository contains
all possible tags.

Here are the relevant parts of my cvsupfile.  You will need at least
to add a host from which to sup.

*default release=cvs
*default base=/src/cvsup
*default prefix=/home/ncvs
*default delete
*default use-rel-suffix
*default compress
src-all
