[ Jordan, I'm Cc:ing you as release engineer as -STABLE has been partially
broken for nearly three weeks now. ]

I reported that problem to -hackers on May 26th. On June 6th I filled
it as PR misc/19077 with highest priority and even included a patch.
Neither my concerns about the MFC happening before the original patch
got installed in -CURRENT nor the problem per se have been addressed.
From the mails I get as the (new) maintainer of the Wine port I see that
lots of people loose lots of time due this bug in -STABLE and -CURRENT.
Is there a way to
a) escalate such issues that at least -STABLE gets fixed ASAP?
b) mark a port to notify users not to try using it on -STABLE and
-CURRENT?
Gerald
