I would release "base" as it is in master though, not mergein any
branches.. I have decently tested it on a couple of platforms with gcc.

I'll proceed tomorrow then with releasing whatever is in the master branch.

I'll review if Documentation/news.texi (IIRC the source for other news
files) has been updated and if version has been bumped.

I think it's about time to make a release.  I'm looking at the NSURLComponents 
stuff some more today, but as it's a new class (not in the previous release), 
as long as it compiler reliably (it does) it's not going to break anything and 
should not stop us making a release.
