Not just a feature freeze -- a hard freeze, with rules approximating those
of stable updates (ie, important bug fixes only).  On the other hand, while
rules as to what changes are acceptable are the same, it's drastically less
hassle to get the fix through now than it'll be after the release.

It'd be good to mark it as not actionable for now, yeah.  Closing and
reopening would work, so would closing and re-filing.

Hi Adam,

Thanks for pointing out the feature freeze, and sorry for forgetting about
it :-( I think I will go for option 3, as the bad-free bug can cause program
crashes. Once the feature freeze is over, I'll revist the release of 0.4.8.
Do we keep this bug open, or shall I simply file a new bug once the time has
come?

Thanks,
Gertjan

Hi!
This upload is targetted at unstable, yet doesn't look like something fit
for a late-freeze update.  It is somewhat controversial whether this matters
much for a near-leaf package, but it makes the life of the Release Team
busier, and some people have strong opinions about the issue.

Thus, I'd propose either:
1. pausing until Buster is released, or
2. uploading to experimental instead, or
3. if you consider it important, isolating just the bad free fix, and
   applying it as a patch to 0.4.6 (I don't know how severe the bug is)
