There's a silver lining in this, because the binary packaging for
3.4.0 has been quite sluggish, so most users have not been exposed to
3.4.0. I'm specifically thinking of the Debian packages (hence
Ubuntu), Windows and even Mac OS X, except for the recent surfacing of
a binary for it.

After April 10, I'm going to commit more time to work on the Debian
packaging, and if 3.4.1 happens soon, that could be the first Debian
package in the 3.4.x series.
