urgency was the order of the day.  rest assured that once 9.2.3 comes out
of release candidacy (and becomes a release), the oopsiness will move back
to the internal development versions where it belongs.

no argument from me.  the people who needed urgent patches got them and put
them to good use.  the people who need less urgent change will get that later.
