I believe this is fixed by commit
4c966d920fb75a5d0366b887c2ef28e6d87c1eda, although it seems no one
really understands why.

pika is still red, but it claims not to have updated in 13 days, so
I'm not sure what that means.

I believe that this was fixed by commit
94be9e3f0ca9e7ced66168397eb586565bced9ca.

I believe this was fixed by commits
94133a935414407920a47d06a6e22734c974c3b8 and
908ab80286401bb20a519fa7dc7a837631f20369.

This is all kinds of not done, AFAIK.

btree_gist was commited as 8436489c81c23af637696ac69cdaafddcc907ee1

So it seems like the only thing that is an absolute must-do is write
some release notes.
