No problem, freeze is there to find bugs, you found a serious bug, let's fix it before the release. [...] > //sleep(20); > sleep(1); does sleep(20); there avoid the problem ? There is a failure in guest start but we don't get a proper description There is no urging deadline, except well for the pending patches waiting for the end of the freeze, if we can fix this by Monday, then that would be IMHO just fine. If on Monday we still don't have a solution let's discuss the status of the analysis, okay ?
