I think that is too late. I don't expect us to use the contingency
plan, but if we have to, e.g. because we discover that there's some
issue with the linker output, most likely we'd need to do a partial
mass rebuild for binary packages. If we start that at beta freeze, the
freeze would be meaningless. Maybe set the contingency deadline at
"Change Checkpoint: 100% Code Complete Deadline Tue 2020-02-25", and
after that date we commit to ship with the new binutils no matter what.
