I honestly don't think his question was from a committers standpoint. I
think he wanted to know how to back them out locally for his own system.
To do that he needs to read the handbook entries for staying current
with FreeBSD, specifically the stuff on anoncvs. Then to back them out
he needs to use cvs to retrieve an older revision of the affected files
via anoncvs and make a new world.
