I am not the release team, but probably no.  Once there are only a few
left, the release team might signal that it is a convenient enough
time to upload and they can be fixed afterward.  And some packages can
be temporarily removed from testing to avoid slowing a transition down
too much.

Plus I was too lazy of a reader to notice that libav 0.8 is
ABI-compatible with libav 0.7, making this way easier than a typical
transition (so the random RC bugs are not actually relevant; only the
ftbfs bugs might be).  Actually I am not sure why this is called a
transition at all.

Thanks,
Jonathan
