AFAIK the change of mail-user-agent is not a problem in this regard (we
don't actually need to make message-mode compatible with mail-mode; we
just need to avertise the change more prominently). But between
gdb-mi.el and the rfc2047 plans, I agree that it looks like trunk is not
headed for a very-short cycle. So we may very well release a 23.2 from
the release branch rather than from the trunk. I'm not too worried
about it, tho.
