I'm asking because I assume that GPU hangs are serious enough issues, 
that they should be checked out before release.

At least if they have reproducible test-case and/or error state files.

So it seems.

If it would have worked according to process (as I understand it), some 
Mesa developer should have looked at the bug, decided that it's not a 
blocker, and removed it from the dependencies before release, instead of 
it just being ignored.

(I had added the bug as blocker after getting confirmation from list 
that regressions from previous release can be added as such.)
