Bingo! You'll actually get 1.6.1_STABLE. If you really wanted 1.6.1
exactly, the static tag (not branch) would be netbsd-1-6-PATCH001.

"src" has only one branch for NetBSD-1.6 plus all patch releases, and
that is the netbsd-1-6 branch. "pkgsrc" and "xsrc" have, or will have,
shorter-lived branches, like netbsd-1-6-1, netbsd-1-6-2 (not yet).
