New release critical bugs need not keep a security update from testing,
unless the new release with the security update itself introduced more
release critical bugs than it solved. If unrelated RC bugs are filed,
the release team has the power to force a security fix into testing
anyway.

Dependency issues blocking a security update from reaching testing
remains the main blocker for security updates reaching testing and
probably will continue to do so until the autobuilders fully support
testing.
