Yeah, none of the above is attractive this late in the cycle X-<. It probalby is best to queue the "fixup!" commits as they are on top of ns/tmp-objdir, merge the result to two topics that depend on ns/tmp-objdir, and keep them without merging them down, until the release. When it is time to rewind 'next' after the release, it would be a good chance to get rid of these "oops, earlier we screwed up" commits by redoing the tmp-objdir (and rebasing the other two topics on top).
