Could you be a bit more verbose, please? Currently, judging by
http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu-stable-1.0.git;a=summary (which seems to be
lacking a v1.0 tag), it seems like only a Malta fix is queued so far?

I'm new to the stable business but my expectation is that patches are
cherry-picked to the stable branch, if qualified, once applied to
master. I haven't seen any "Thanks, applied to stable-1.0 branch" reply
lately, but you're pinning 1.0.1 to a date already, leading to 1.0.1
getting either no testing (if you apply pending patches today/tomorrow)
or hardly any fixes (one applied 47 hours ago)...

Regards,
Andreas
