Note that a stable bugfix-only branch doesn't have to be maintained by the
same person who maintains the development branch, and often these _are_
different people.
The main limiting factor is a volunteer to do the work. You can always do
an "unofficial" bugfix-only release and get it blessed later. (That's how
the Windows and MacOS X binary releases seem to work.)
