 Any current release from the active branches
 
 >Description:
 
 The XFree86 source uses a local RCS keyword "$XFree86$".  FreeBSD's
 version of cvs has support for expanding local RCS keywords, but the
 code that checks for them only allows them to contain alpha characters.
 Although this is only an issue for XFree86 developers, changing the
 behaviour to also allow numerical characters will make it possible for
 them to use the FreeBSD version of cvs.
 
 >How-To-Repeat:
 
 Create a $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/options file like:
 
 tag=XFree86=CVSHeader
 
 check out a file with a $XFree86$ line, and note that it isn't expanded.
