Depends on the problem.  For example, the recent library name changes
relating to libltdl/dlopen issues may or may not belong in HEAD, but
they're critical for 1.6.

Since it's very likely we'll choose a different long-term solution for
this problem, and we won't know until we have the discussion, in my
judgement there was little point in trying to integrate the changes
into HEAD right now.
