I suppose a release candidate will branch from the main development
tree?  Then the latter could start using a 2.4.26 kernel as soon as it
enters the archive.  And the release manager would have to decide
whether this change should make it into the actual release, the
obvious advantage being a single 2.4 kernel for all archs.
