Apparently.  They're definitely there in the master CVS, for instance
"cvs log" shows me for README.btree_gist:

symbolic names:
        REL7_3_21: 1.1
        REL7_4_19: 1.3
        REL8_0_15: 1.5
        REL8_1_11: 1.5
        REL8_2_6: 1.5
        REL8_3_BETA2: 1.5
        REL8_3_BETA1: 1.5
        REL7_3_20: 1.1
...

I noticed during one of the betas that it's still true that a "cvs tag"
operation doesn't propagate to the mirror at all (for instance, you
can't see the tags in cvsweb) until someone does a commit of another
type.  Magnus or someone thought he'd fixed that, buut apparently not.

Hmm, now I see the "missing" tags for README.btree_gist on the anon
server too.  Did someone just sync this up?

                        regards, tom lane
