Nothing.

If I recall correctly, "a lot closer to working" happened way after 1.5.5
merge window closed, so it definitely is not 1.5.5 material.

Judging from the fact that we recently had to deal with the fallouts of C
rewrites that happened during the 1.5.4 timeframe, I would have to say
that any C rewrite of a substantial and important program needs to be
cooked at least for one (or preferably two cycles, especially we are
trying to have shorter cycles) in 'next'.

So at this point, I optimistically say that it has a good chance of being
deeply in 'next' and all the active git people would hopefully be using
it, by the time 1.5.6 (or perhaps that is named 1.6.0, depending on what
else we will do) ships, but I cannot say much more than that.  It very
much depends on how hard the code has been scrutinized already at this
point; I haven't personally looked at it in any serious depth yet.
