Richard and Saul have made it clear that removing 4.7.3 isn't going to happen before the release, so I'm trying make a compromise here. Are you saying you would find it unacceptable for both 4.7.3 and 4.7.4 to be in OE-core for a short while? > > Sure not.

The fact remains nobody has collected up the patches and presented Saul/I with a pull request collecting up these pieces. I've not even seen the patch addressing the regression posted, people just seem to agree one exists. So various people has tested varying combinations of patches with varying success. This isn't the kind of patchset I like to take at -rc3 time. If it breaks the build in any way on any of the four architectures the release gets delayed by at least a couple of weeks. I don't think people realise how long proper QA cycles take :( I really do want to take it but people aren't helping make this easy for me and it does carry significant risk which I don't think people realise.
