I understand Tom's concerns. We have already talked about this on the
phone because we anticipated this may happen.
We are one week from beta. I think what we should do is to give
everyone a day to look over the patch and submit their ideas about it to
the group. We can then review the possible scenarios we can take:
apply and contine to September 1 beta
apply and delay beta until October 1
create a patch file against 7.3 for distribution
wait for 7.4 and do not distribute
