Yes. So what?
Upgrading your systems to 6.3 takes _precisely_ the same amount
of work as upgrading to "6-STABLE as of today 00:00 GMT".
You may want to pick a different point of time, but it really
doesn't matter, because a release _is_ just a CVS branch created
at a certain time.

People who have issues with RELENG_6_3 should upgrade to RELENG_6
which is perfectly supported.
Kind regards,
