Yes, there is something to be said for this idea.  We can single-patch
into 7.3 and make one mega-patch to bring 7.4 up to 7.3.  I think that
will work _if_ 7.4 doesn't drift too much, and even then, I just need to
spend some time manually doing it.  However, there is the danger that
7.4 changes will not hit all the areas coming in from the 7.3 patch.
