I don't know exactly the amount of modifications you're talking for the
per-crtc-pixmap work but you may want to get community review I guess, which
would take even more time to integrate on master. Nevertheless, for me it's
okay to delay the freeze a bit, if we keep the same release date.

Apart from that, the input-thread work is "ready" and also the optionalization
of libpciaccess... well, I had an endless discussion with Mark Kettenis about
it but for me was just nitpicking. But I'm not feeling motivated enough to
push forward the development for these. I'd be happy to help anyone take over
though.
