It's been half year now when this was rised. Now what has happen? Latest Stable Release [ v3.8.0-STABLE ] March 19, 2007
So nothing. And how many patches ubuntu/debian/gentoo/rh/suse/[insert your distro here] has already made for that stable latest release? I think if development was really happening, there would have been new release out already.
