We also ended up with some very late fixes for bad NBD
bugs, which I've just applied to master. Since those
were diagnosed and fixed in a rather short timescale,
I've opted to not tag rc4 just yet, but instead give
it another 24 hours to make sure we're happy we really
did fix all the NBD bugs. Plan is to tag rc4 on Thursday
24th and final release next week (wednesday?)

We've had a few late-breaking PPC host bugs that we need
to fix, so we'll tag rc3 either today or more likely tomorrow
and then have the final release next week.
