Distros should be sticking to official releases, and I don't anticipate
an OpenChange 0.10 release before GNOME 2.30.  If distros push packages
into unreleased territory, it's up to them to apply patches.

That said, if we -can- accommodate unreleased API churn in external
dependencies without breaking anything, great.  But I wouldn't call it a
showstopper.
