Well, I think we should put at least some effort into clearing out
the underbrush. There's a lot of pretty small stuff in the January CF
list that I think we could go through in a short time. The biggies,
IMO, are the ones you noted:

and Teodor's GIN/GIST stuff. If we feel that we are in schedule
trouble I think that bumping these to the next release is by far
the sanest response. Bumping SR so we can get these in would be
completely misguided.
