I pushed out the -git trees yesterday, but then got distracted, so the 
patches and tar-balls and the announcement got delayed until this morning. 
Oops. I'm a scatter-brain.

Anyway, the good news about -rc4 is that there's just lots of random 
fixes. I'm hoping that we've seriously cut down on the regression list, 
and I'd ask everybody who is on Adrian's list to please re-verify their 
regression, and in case it's one of the "patches available" ones but I 
haven't merged (maybe because it hasn't been sent to me!), make sure I do.

Shortlog appended. Nothing really stands out.
