Whether this is going to be back-patched or not, you should do
something about it quickly, because we're wrapping a new beta and a
full set of back-branch releases next week. I'm personally hoping
that what follows beta3 will be rc1, but if we have too much churn
after beta3 we'll end up with a beta4, which could end up slipping the
whole release cycle.
