Sure it's a regression, just one that didn't make it into a release yet. But tracking regressions in mainline is just as important as tracking them in stable trees, as it allows Linus to take a look at the known regressions when he needs to decide between "release another rc" and "call this finished and release the final". That's why mainline in the past often was the main focus of regression tracking or the only tree for which is was performed! > [...] Ciao, Thorsten
