Thanks for the notice Marc.
This is the second serious bug that I've considered a blocker.

The prime one being [1] which affects Steam on radeonsi. While the
offending patch addresses earlier major breakage.
Although it's unclear if restricted to radeonsi (and swr, respectively) or not.

That said, I'm inclined that we can go with RC1 and address the issues
in the following days/week.

Thanks
Emil
