Yes. The late fixes for OS X also arose from the fact that Apple
released a new OS X version late in our beta cycle. I don't think it's
reasonable to complain that there was insufficient port testing done
earlier; the issues didn't come from that.
I do agree with the opinion that our beta cycles are getting too long,
and that it's not clear we are getting any additional reliability out
of the longer time period.
