Generally, if we publish security patch we should release ASAP, as
having public unpatched security issue is bad. Fortunately, the issue
disclosed is not that bad, I'd even doubt it is security issue per se,
as I see no real way to trigger it without code access (it may be I miss
something though).

Accelerating the schedule is OK with me (as is keeping the current one,
too) but please do not forget to merge pending patches (or please tell
me when you want me to merge them).

Thanks,
