FYI, I've been running 4.9-prerelease since last week, all without PAE.
Booted it on all my boxen (including a web server and a database server)
as well as doing hardware reconfigurations and testing a device driver.
All _without_ PAE, which I won't touch until it has shaken out a bit.
Everything has been rock-solid, no problems at all.  Were it not for
PAE, I would say to go ahead and release it.
