sort of - I've been marking the ones that I plan to put into the next bugfix
patch as 'applies to 2.8.1rel.2'. There's a lot more than that in the devXXX
series. I'm working on dev.8 now, which brings me up to date on the patches
that don't require further work (such as the wait-status one from this week).

(the memory leaks are mostly of the permanent variety: memory allocated,
reused, but not freed on exit - none have been important enough to add to
the 2.8.1 bug fixes).
