Note that it's OK to rebase things in -next; so it doesn't have to be
frozen till it goes into one of our trees.  (And I've tried once or
twice to maintain the discpline of not rebasing stuff in my tree and
have failed....  I'll make a better effort this time.)

them around a little faster (within a few days or a week anyway).
