I definitely have -RELEASE... i'm working from the downloaded released
ISO image. And it definitely says "RELEASE" on boot up (from dmesg):

FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE #0: Thu Jun  5 02:55:42 GMT 2003
    root_at_wv1u.btc.adaptec.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC

(Though i have since recompiled the kernel using the sources on the
CD-Rom -- i also recompiled src/usr.sbin/ppp at some point yesterday
in one of my many failed attempts to fix the thing... but it didn't
help... incidentally 'make buildworld' failed on a missing krb5.h ...
but that's another issue...)
