Typically while we are in rc, stuff that will not go into the release under
rc is just held until we open dev again, so no double merges.

So the remaining issue is what is the best way to converge on stable code
that will build with release versions of other packages.

What kinds of fixups are we talking here? Can we just revert the fixups when
we open dev of the next release?
