RE: [HACKERS] vacuum process size

The reason for the tag as to be able to return to the 6.5 release source
code.  It's production code, and should be accessible at least for the next
couple of months.

Was a tag created for 6.5.1?  The object is to be able to check out any
particular release, bugs and all, whenever we feel like it.
