Ok, new rule:

If it's going to go into 1.0.1, it should already be in 1.1.  (And I guess 
that means the trivial mv fix should go into 1.1, to be ripped out again when 
we do the big cleanup later.)

I'm not arguing against applying all these new bug fixes to 1.1, I'm saying 
let's fix up 1.1 while we're preparing 1.0.1 so we haven't got stuff pending 
in both directions.  (I really don't want to try to keep track of both 
forward ports _and_ backports at the same time.)

If some patch just doesn't apply to 1.1 because the whole area of code got 
rewritten, fine.  As long as the the issue is somehow addressed in 1.1, life 
is good...
