Um, yes, I would also like the compiler do move a little more
conservativly, and there is some hardware that doesn't work in 4.x,
but other than that I don't like 3.4-STABLE and don't think it is wise
to update on older 3.x release to it due to stability.  See the
discussion on -stable and let us not get into the same flamewar here.
