What are you smoking?  They have only been emptied three times in
the last 3 years that I remember!

If the package in question isn't going to be generated before the
next release (say one week) then it definitely should be a
concern when adding patches that would be in that release, since
bento doesn't upload the packages to ftp-master more than once a
week, as far as i know.
