Sure, say this on the day I'm about to release ;-)

Nah, I'll release these today anyway. Otherwise I can't update to the
mainline stables. When the rc candidates are out, it holds up any new
updates to the versions.

Also, the stable 3.10 has this bug already. Might as well update all
the stables with the same fix. It makes it easier on my side, as the
way I do the updates is to use the same quilt queue for all releases. I
start with 3.10, and get them working, and then apply the same queue to
3.8. Any conflicts in the patch I do a quilt fork, with a -v3.8
appended, and then after getting that working I go to 3.4, and so on.
This also lets me drop patches that are not applicable for earlier
releases.

If I delay this for a new update, then 3.10 will be out of sync. I'm
just going to release these, and then we can start a new one right away.

Thanks!
