Depends on the quality of the upstream RC releases.  If you're confident, I'd 
say go ahead, but if you're just guessing, I'd say please no.  Also, the 
freeze deadline isn't a deadline to get all your untested builds in.  One of 
the reasons we have so many slips is that people rush their builds to get in 
before the freeze and then we have this huge crap pile that we have to 
stabilize during the freeze, which just takes time.
