This member of re@ feels that this falls into the class of "would be
really nice to have, but non-critical" patches.  If you look at the
changes that *have* been committed thus far to RELENG_4_6, almost all of
them were in response to security advisories.

We're also very close to releasing (package builds are running now), and
non-critical changes at this stage become very difficult to justify.  We
had hoped to get 4.6.2 out sooner, but that was difficult partially
because of a rash of new security issues that needed to be dealt with.

Bruce.
