I was hoping to import 11.2 to our repo at $work and be shipping
products based on it later this year. But there's no way we have
resources available to sidetrack and start debugging out of the blue
failures of ports that have been working fine for us until now. I guess
the best I can do now is import 11-stable immediately before the
compiler change. At least I was lucky enough to get all the arm changes
important for us MFC'd before the compiler change.
