Hi Torsten,
Thanks for kickstarting the release process.

We've already got a fairly extensive lead-in time for the release. More
testers on more platforms would seem to be the answer. Perhaps we should
advertize for testers of those platforms that aren't adequately covered by
developers running git?
Making a complete package available, not just the binaries would help, as
testers wouldn't need to be git-aware.

AFAIK this was caused by the random buildings code, and entirely my fault.
I think that is probably a once-off rather than a systemic problem.

As with the last release, I'll trim this down when we get to the release
date and produce a release announcement.
