Will this make them go into 2.3 final automatically? Because (here 
comes the bad news:-)
I have about 12 bugs on my list that need to be looked into, and that 
may need to be
fixed before 2.3 final. In other words: I'm in a hurry.

Luckily most of the bugs are very localized, but some are not:
- 5 are PackMan bugs
- 2 are bugs in the binary installer
- 1 is the test_macostools bugs (which, if it still exists, I can lower 
in priority)

The remaining three, however, are in the build process: 768306, 768068 
and 766210. The first two I haven't looked at yet, so I'm not sure how 
serious they are. I could use help from other people with OSX boxes on 
these, also just to help decide on fix/don't fix.
