Dear Albert & friends,

what is your opinion?  Should we include the memory barrier patch into
the upcoming release (and eventually delay it for further testing), or
release as is and solve this issue in the next release?

I tend to leave it as is, as I expect that most people will disappear
in the next few days for holidays, so no much testing will be done
anyway, and we then can solve this with less pressure in the next
release - but I'm not really sure if this is a good idea?

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
