Sorry, but this is my first RC. :)
I thought that for the final, we should use the same Scipts and Compile as  
on the RC unless a severe bug was found, to avoid such problems.
I also think that the tree should be branched so that those that don't  
work directly on the release can update the tools, without having to worry  
about breaking things for the RC.

Should all bugfixes go through the mailing list during rc status? What  
about this fix?
