Uh, i don't know the answer to the former. the netbsd-1-3 branch
'line' continued straight down from netbsd-1-3-base to 1.3.3 (and
when you see things like 1.4.2_ALPHA or whatever it was (which you
probably _have_ seen recently, that does _not_ indicate a secondary
branch off of the release branch (any more than 1.4_ALPHA or whatever
would indicate a secondary branch off the release branch that was just
created to become 1.4_ALPHA 8-).
