RELENG_X_Y_BP is the point on RELENG_X where the RELENG_X_Y branch was
created.  RELENG_X_Y_0_RELEASE is the point on the RELENG_X_Y branch
which corresponds to what ends up in the actual release.  It generally
has a few changes relative to the branch point point, but not too many.
RELENG_X_Y_BP is mostly an artifact of the way CVS works and is of little
if any real intrest.  There certaintly isn't any real point in checking
it out.
