No.

Not for now at least. First wait for the testsuite-results (if there are
no tests for this particular part, then we even have to wait some
longer, as we need users to test it). Then let it settle at least a few
days. Then we'll see.
Ok, well whatever is fine with me since I don't really use the fixes branch. But it fixes an enormous memory leak that was caused by

if some condition then ;   // << improperly placed semicolon
 ExtractAFileToMemory;

Searching for tcontrol in lcl.chm used >200 megabytes of memory. And each subsequent search only increased memory usage further.

Andrew
