It's been a while since I remember so many different people chiming in with problems with a release, so I would prefer to see a patch release sooner rather than later. How about a patch release Friday (tomorrow/today) instead? That will have given the big fixes 24 hours to bake in git so there shouldn't be too many surprises. It's not an ideal situation w.r.t. timing, but IMHO it's better than letting the current release live for another 5 weeks.
