In that case it is hardly a fix that we need to rush out to the entire
world.

And I thought the reason for -rc is actually to fix bugs. But I never
understood the magical ways and timings patches make their way into
mainline. ;)

OK so it works like this: early in the -rc cycle we fix any bugs, documentation
or whatever. At this point it's *regressions* so the fix need to fix something
that broke in the merge window (or an earlier merge window).

If it is a new feature that never worked in the first place I would
not call that
a regression. There are no existing users out there that can experience
regressions from a previously working system.

So this is why I'm a bit conservative.

Yours,
