Right, REL6_5_PATCHES is the 6.5.* branch. REL6_5 is just a tag ---
that is, it's effectively a frozen snapshot of the 6.5 release,
not an evolvable branch.
I am not sure if Marc intends to continue this naming convention
in future, or if it was just a mistake to create REL6_5 as a tag
not a branch. I don't see a whole lot of use for the frozen tag
myself...
