On this I share Lucas' concerns about ABI stability, plus Ubuntu may end up shipping a pre-release 2.5 then. Why not wait until 2.5 is out before sending it to unstable? I can see how it'd be nice to test with pre-release versions, but maybe this is better done elsewhere (similar to what is done with Haskell AFAIK?). Cheers, -ch
