The trouble is that we don't know where the corruption is taking place in the 
code.

The only problem I have with delaying the release is that we're getting more 
and more out of date with Wine and some great patches are waiting on the 
release. My vote would be to branch now, run 0.3.14 tests on the branch, then 
resume trunk development as if we had just released (Winesyncs, big patches, 
etc). After the Mm bug is found, we can either rebranch 0.3.14 if trunk is 
stable or merge the fix back and release the previous branch.

I agree, and as a result RosMm sucks considerably less now ;)
