I did mean that but you are correct... that would make things pretty 
tough on GeoServer.... So how about a compromise.

1. We copy over all unsupported modules to 2.4
2. We create blocker tasks against 2.4-RC0 to move 
arcsde,db2,pg-versioned, and xml-* to supported
3. We ensure that any unsupported modules that remain do not into the 
official 2.4 release.

What do people think?
