the very last problem I see ist that the RPMs from the "dist-less" gcc 
build for x86_64 are still lingering around. The problem is that - this 
week - 52.2 is considered more recent than 52.el5.2 by rpmlib, and hence 
52.2 is what gets installed by anaconda, and future updates probably 
wouldn't work as expected.

Once these are gone I'll stamp "good for production use" all over the 
x86_64 RC, as I already did for i386. I'm still worried by Jan's warning 
w.r.t. OpenAFS-1.4.4 and users sharing credentials, but I'm unable to 
reproduce these problems.

Cheers,
 	Stephan

PS Since TUV just announced errata for the kernel packages: I
    have some minute changes to the openafs packages, but probably
    won't be able to tend to this before wednesday. If you want to
    release the current state, that's ok. But if this is going to
    delay the release for a couple of days, it may make sense to
    put in those minor fixes.
