IMHO it lacks the major one.:
- actually making sure the branch contains all must have fixes and
revisions it should have.
P.s. can we open the fixes branch for merging again? A 1 1/2 year
freeze makes it a bit stale.
Agreed - one of the fixes I made to the register allocator was for a
dangling pointer bug that exists as far back as the git history - that's
one thing that definitely needs to be merged into the fixes branch:

Merging to the fixes branch should be under greater scrutiny than the
trunk though since we have to make sure it doesn't make things worse.
