Yeah, not sure why you were pushing them straight to -fixes in the
first place. :)  -fixes is just for known bug fixes that people are
hitting, not speculative ones, especially workarounds we know work in
theory but haven't applied to a specific bug.  So we agree there.  I'm
hoping at least some of the known w/a's will be found to fix a known
bug report, then we can push to -fixes and/or stable as appropriate.
