Looking at this. First of all the answers were not as friendly as they should 
have been. Second, I think you have a point that there is a inconsistency with

Personally I'm not using stable so I have no idea.

Marcin, Koen. Do you switch from dev to stable? How do you do that? Do you 
have two complete build trees for stable/dev?
