According to the flowchart posted elsewhere, the soak period only need
be extended if this had been found in the final week of the soak.
>From our docs on releasing:
The stabilization period begins with a release candidate tarball with
the version A.B.0-rc1. Further release candidate tarballs may be made as
blocking bugs are fixed;
...
Under some circumstances, the stabilization period will be extended:
* If a potentially destabilizing change must be made in order to fix a
bug, the entire four-week stabilization period is restarted.
...
* If a critical bugfix is made during the final week of the
stabilization period, the final week is restarted. The final A.B.0
release is always identical to the release candidate made one week
before (with the exceptions discussed below).
I don't see anything about this bug that would require extending the
soak.
