Yes. Version 4.4 will include everything that was in CVS up to 1 June 2009,
plus all bugfixes applied since then,
plus many but not all of the changes applied to CVS since then.

The major things that it does not include from current CVS:
mouse-wheel interaction
qt terminal driver
dashed line support in cairo
