Okay, that would be then today. looking at FATE [1], things seems to be
mostly fine, with some known test failures. The single known build
failure is on ia64 and caused by a gcc bug (according to mans, our .bss
segment is about 5MB, but gcc fails to handle that, so *shrug*).

Regarding the other FATE test suite failures, does anyone care to get
them fixed for 0.6? And more importantly, does anyone have good reasons
or pending patches to delay creating the branch for one week? In any
case, we will still accept/backport selected changes for another week,
but we need to know if trunk is currently a good basis for a new
release.
