It would be easier with ab/pickaxe-pcre2 merged down :) As things that are not yet in 'master' will not be merged down for a few weeks anyway, the conflicts don't matter that much---it is a valid choice not to accept new topics that conflicts with topics cooking in 'next' after all. That way, the number of topics that folks have to look at will not increase, which gives more opportunity for topics that are already in 'seen' to get reviewed ;-)
