Actually no, they are not in mainline any more, that's the point of the 
mail I referred you to.

I have just cloned a fresh u-boot, and neither "2009.01-rc2" nor 
"NIOS2-5_0_0" are in there. The latter was still in u-boot-arm, and 
there being no reason for it there, I just removed it by 'git push -f 
ssh://gu-arm@git.denx.de/u-boot-arm :NIOS2-5_0_0'

Note that both spurious tags are also present in u-boot-atmel, 
u-boot-imx, u-boot-marvell, u-boot-pxa, and u-boot-samsung (and possibly 
others? I only checked the ones I have as remotes) -- custodians added 
in To: list. Both should be removed, as the NIOS tag should appear only 
in Scott's u-boot-nios repository (Scott CC:ed for info).

Note: rebasing your repo will not 'pull tag removals', i.e. if a tag is 
removed from a remote it will not automatically be removed from your 
local repo, and besides, if you remove it locally it will not be removed 
from your official repo on the denx server unless you explicitly tell 
'git push' to do it, like I did. To make sure you are completely rid of 
a tag, you have to do both a 'git tag -d TAGTOREMOVE' for local removal, 
and a 'git push ... :TAGTOREMOVE' (or use 'git push --mirror' or 'git 
push --delete', with care)
