However, I still find it sad that there are changes between the latest -rc and the final version. This time, it seems it did not cause trouble, but in the past, it happened several times, because any valid fix can have side effects. I think that if you could announce what you intend to release with a message like "I will make this -final tomorrow", there would be some time to test builds in various configs, and check that no obvious bug has been introduced.
