If a patch is known to cause a regression, it shouldn't be going in during
the merge window _or_ the fix patch should also go in during the merge
window via the same route to resolve the regression before it's noticable.

Given the number of changes which go in during the merge window, waiting
for -rc to fix a known bug *before* the merge window is not on - it breaks
the ability to bisect during the period where bisect really is needed.
