Please use MC_4_6_1_PRE for the release of 4.6.1. Then we can use HEAD
for 4.6.2 and onwards.

All we need for PRE is possibly the fixes that proski introduced for
gcc-4 warnings and some translations. That should suffice for 4.6.1. I
would say you can call that code very stable.

Many of the changes in HEAD are hardly tested. So let's please use HEAD
for upcoming release.

<sigh> Good. Let's not jump to anything above that yet.
