Ah yes, probably.  I might have misunderstood the purpose of the fixes branch, or if the RC has been released yet.

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.
So another rc :)?
