I thought we already did that with the 3.0.1, 3.0.2, etc. releases. Fixes
applied to the 3.0.1 branch, for example, had to be re-applied into HEAD.
Could we do the same thing for the RCs?

I know, and Dirk's doing a fine job. I'm only trying to understand the process
and why it's set up the way it is.
