I believe that Urs has the correct definition, although I don't
have a reference handy.  It should be in the CG, or at least the
GOP decision from last summer, though.

If we try to account for accidental changes of
accidentally-working stuff, 2.16 will never be out (until/unless
we change the release policy during GOP 2, which I will be
proposing).
