Well, seeing as we aren't supposed to be doing _any_ tweeking after RC1
unless we can help it, it seems these may delay things. 
(Docs/regression we can tweek.)  If we can get the BeOS and R4000 stuff
done, or decide we don't want to get it done for 7.2, I think we are a
go.

I guess that was my issue, that we do have a few ports in flux, and it
would be nice to have these all nailed down by Monday, and the
docs/regression if possible.
