But not low enough.  There are parts of the gnome release that seem to
not follow this.  Large changes in the last tarball including FEATURE
changes hit us with this last gnome release.  Remember things that
didn't make the release and were held out for later test updates.  Even
still it was a hellish couple of days for our gnome folks to chew
through the 'minimal' changes.  I was not comfortable at ALL with this
process.
