yes, it's tagged with netbsd-1-5-PATCH002. But if you're going to upgrade
from sources, you could go with netbsd-1-5 as well; you'll get 1.5.3_ALPHA
(which is not -current, but bug fixes to 1.5.2).

Yes:
cvs checkout -r netbsd-1-5 src
will give you the whole source tree.

Yes, you can do this as well, it may be faster :)
