I took it with Hugh's ack from his reply to this, so it should be in rc8.

I'm not sure how much testing a week in rc8 will actually get, but
next week is likely to be at least a _bit_ more active than the
current week has been. And it's been tested by the people reporting it
(and apparently Hugh too).
