We don't support not-yet-released distros, because there's no way
to do that: they might always spring new surprises on us that we
don't have time to react to. But I agree that the weight of stuff
we've built up justifies an rc4.
Also we can expect that other distros will have the same issue over the next 4 months. (In fact rolling release distros like Debian testing and Arch might be already broken for what we know).
Is patch 3 also required? I thought 1 and 2 would suffice, but
I don't have a system which has the newer glib.
Yes, they do.
