No, I don't think so. :)

I don't have any firsthand experience, but everybody tells me dealing
with branches in CVS is a pain, so we never made separate branches.
Don't know if we really need to at this point, hopefully the freeze
will last only one more week, I think we can collect patches in the
meantime. As the plan is to eventually move to Subversion anyway, so I
think we'll be able to deal with branched trees more easily there.
