I would like to see a stable 2.4.4 release ASAP for the reasons explained a 
few days ago. I was thinking of waiting with a 2.4-stable branch until after 
that release is tagged.

Should I just go ahead and tag current r20404 as 2.4.4 so that we have a 
release this weekend? Also, I'll then create a branch from that commit once 
the release is out.
