Nasty. ;( 

Would it be possible for you (or someone) to coordinate and put all
these builds into one update? That way we could see about pulling them
all in as a NTH before release. If they are a bunch of scattered
updates it could be much harder to make sure we don't miss any. 

Also, someone would need to nominate this bug for that process:
