Well, I think that I can always think of reasons that I may want to add 
features to older branches.  I have not heard of anyone declaring 
4-STABLE a dead branch, nor have I heard of anyone declaring 5-CURRENT 
as the imminent replacement of the -STABLE label.

When I look at the libmap stuff, I see a very small, well contained 
change.  I believe that this makes an ideal candidate for MFC.  I can 
personally think of many benefits that accrue from the MFC of libmap, 
not the least of which revolve around improved user experience due to 
tighter integration of Mozilla plugins.

If you know of the imminent demise of the 4-STABLE branch, please let me 
know.  If you know of fatal bugs in libmap, please let me know. 
Otherwise, what roadblocks stand in the way of MFC?
