If we made the "deadline" for patch acceptance into 9.2 CF#4, then shortening that to a two week cycle whose main goal was simply to sanity check patches for 9.2 would probably work. Most would probably still need further work, which we would expect to get handled in the final, full CF#5, but we wouldn't let anything new come into CF#5. This way when we get the 100 patch pile up in CF#4, there's no expectation that those patches will be committed, just that they can be sanity checked for the 9.2 release.
