Well, to be fair, it always seemed a little silly to me to not include a "[expected in 4.0-RELEASE]" tag with each fix. Would be particularly useful, since at least one of the fixes hasn't been merged to -stable, but there's no way to tell this simply from reading the y2k file.

See above comment about merges to -stable. -- This is my .signature which gets appended to the end of my messages.
