Nope, that's a tag not a branch.  This is why it's so important not to
commit "large" updates during the slush.  The update of www/firefox to
2.0 probably counted as large since it's an incompatible update and
affects so many ports.

Not appropriate since the ports collection checked out by users won't
include the fix.
