That whole premise is flawed. The *rule* for the stable tree is that
things don't get merged into the stable tree unless they are fixed in
mainline already.
If Adrian cares to note which two regressions he had in mind in his
previous post <[email protected]> or what the exact timing
was I'll let him continue this.
We had that problem in the 2.4.x / 2.5.x split. I think we learnt our
lesson.
I'd love to think that's the case.
