I get very nervous about major port updates that involve large numbers
of ports and have a major impact on a lot of users just prior to a
release.

Looking at the schedule, which has not slipped at all (Amazing!), 10.1
is 2 weeks off. I'd hope that if it comes before 10.1 that there is
time for a package build and time for people to install it before the
10.1 release. This week's package build is underway and may be
complete. So if you get 4.14 out before next Wednesday, I guess it
should be OK, but if not, I'd suggest waiting until a week or two
after 10.1 hits the streets.

Probably I'm just being paranoid.
