All,

I realize when I reported my issue, I failed to state my methodology for 
determining the fix was not present in RC2.  I performed the following steps:

1. git fetch origin
2. git checkout master
3. git rebase origin/master
4. git tag --contains 3a48171b

Steps 2 and 3 shouldn’t be necessary, but belts and suspenders.  The result of 
these steps was that only the 4.5.2 tag came back as containing the 3a48171b 
commit.  There is always the chance that I mucked up the check, and someone 
should double check my work before we go through the effort of pulling back an 
approved RC.

Thanks,
-John
