We're in Stage 1, and in Stage 1 big changes happen -- and then there is naturally some instability. We clearly have some instability at present, so we need to slow down until that's resolved.
Therefore, effective immediately, please commit only bug fixes to the middle end and to architectures that are designated as primary platforms. Please hold off on new features for these areas of the compiler, until things stabilize. It's OK to continue to add new features to secondary platforms and front ends, but I suggest that we exercise caution there as well. We'll stay in this mode until we've gotten back to the point where test results are looking pretty good on all of the primary platforms -- hopefully just a few days. With the benefit of hindsight, I think that committing both the SSA expansion and type-checking changes in close succession was probably a bit too much change a bit too quickly. When changes of this magnitude go in, we should probably wait a few days to see if stabilization is required before introducing another change of large magnitude.
