Oh well. I'm sorry then for being dumb. OTOH, I really did not want to
start testing _again_, and people have been waiting for this release
because of the Solaris regression.
Will have a look at it after I'm done forward-porting the couple of
patches which are in branch-1-5 only ATM. Unless the other maintainers
beat me for it, I will still work on bugs in all three branches,
getting 2.0 out should be the prime objective, however.
