Just to mention, while I am going to start working on this as soon as I
can, I do have a couple of Apache module packages for which the port to
2.4 is definitely non-trivial.  For Shibboleth, for example, it's going to
requite a significant upstream release since the way that it handles
authorization rules doesn't work at all.  Upstream is working on that, but
it's going to be a little bit more.

I don't know if that's an argument against making all of those bugs
release-critical... but certainly they do need to be fixed before the
release, so it's directly true.  I kind of don't want the working packages
to be removed from testing, though (not that making the bugs RC causes
that directly).
