Well.. yeah. It is open source. I don't think you needed someone to tell
you that though.
There are lots of issues in telling people "just build the code
yourself", probably the biggest being a rather negative experience for
the user. For example, I'd be frustrated if I wanted to use MySQL and
had to build it by hand to get a _data loss bugfix_.
Going out on a limb and guessing that you're ultimately trying to say
"it'll get released anyways", that doesn't address the fact that no one
is actually volunteering to do the work.

If the critical issues are fixed in 1.5.x, and someone needs them, can't they
check out the source and build it themselves? Is that a viable option?

Subject: Re: [VOTE] Accumulo 1.5.4-rc1
The larger concern I have is that expecting it to be fixed prior to 1.5.4
might mean loss of willingness to create an RC2 for 1.5.4 and release it at
all. Recall, the 1.5 branch was only revived at all to fix some critical
issues and move on. It's still a viable alternative to abandon 1.5.x and
focus on fixing these issues in 1.6, and later, where we've made dramatic
improvements to the build. Fixing these newly identified issues is going to
take some time and effort. It's not that it can't be done for 1.5.4... but
the question is... who is going to do it? Is anybody who issued a "-1"
willing to step up and resolve these issues? Or will it rely on Josh? I'm
currently looking at some of the issues to try to help out if I can, but I
also have other obligations.

Fix now and it'll be fixed here and in 1.6.x.
