BTW - If you have a bug which you believe deserves to be marked RC you
can always just tag it is sarge and sid as well to have it effectively
ignored for migration purposes. As long as the version in sid has less
bugs it will migrate to sarge. I am not going to comment on the
particular case here since I didn't even read the bug report.
