You could argue that since 3.16.0 does not have the recently found
deadlock patch that's been plaging 15 and 16 (14 not as much for me),
it's not usable for some (it ran about 1 day on my laptop before
deadlocking, and maybe an hour at most on my server).

I sure hope that deadlock patch is going to be added to the 3.16.x tree,
I'm not super stocked with being stuck at 3.14.
