 Fixing a non-regression in 3.2.1 would violate the release criteria for
 point releases.  I wouldn't object to an exception if we had a fix in
 hand, but with 18 release-critical bugs we need to start getting real, and
 looking at what to drop.  And it's the release manager's decision, not the
 sparc maintainer's decision.
 
 If it were me, I'd punt this one to 3.3 and look for others to punt as
 well.
