I think we can safefly assume that if someone is suggesting that upstream is 
smoking bad crack that maybe that is an argument or a flame if you like. My 
point being there does not seem to be any management of the features being 
released or the timing of them. They could not wait one more week once test 
3 is out the door to start this stuff ? Release 3 has already been delayed 
once due to gcc 4.1 changes.
