I'd like to ship 3.2.1 in about two weeks from now, that is,
before the end of August. 3.2.0 seems to be fairly stable,
but enough stuff has been reported and fixed now to warrant a
bug-fix release.
The current docs/internals/3_2_BUGSTATUS.txt is below. The main
important changes are SSE3 support, support for new nop insns from
binutils, and fixes for various obscure-but-critical bugs,
particularly 129866, 130020, complete machine lockups during leak
checking, and an mmap(FIXED..) assertion.
Anybody have any other critical bugs?
The alternative to releasing 3.2.1 now is to delay and do a release
later, but I prefer to ship what fixes we have now and tentatively
plan for 3.2.2 around end-Oct if needed.
