It was tested, there were some issues, it was thought they were
relatively easily resolved, that turned out not to be the case.

I get put under immense pressure to merge patches 'yesterday'. Please
keep this kind of issue in mind next time you ask me to hurry up and
merge something ;-). We've been able to catch a lot of things but its
the ones that slip through that people notice :/.

Cheers,
