I've been trying to be a bit aggressive this cycle to merge various clean-up topics, together with real bugfixes, to 'maint'. Those who often skip the -rcX but diligently follow numbered releases found a few potential regressions in 2.44-rc as a result, which I could say is a great success ;-). In addition, I was planning to have only one -rc release without going -rc2 before the final, but we may need one if only for this fix. The fix in the patch looks quite straight-forward. Thanks.
