With hat RE:
It looks like this should be on the list of RE@
"Stable Branch Creation" check/change list
that gets done by RE@ when a stable branch
is created so that it is a early commit
post branch and not a head commit that is
merged post branch.

I have forwarded a copy of this issue to
internel re@ mail and we whall deal with it
for stable/12 as an RE(implicit) commit,
and this should probably be reverted
from ^head at your descrition.

Thanks,
Rod <RE
