So did we get any signoffs here? I am aware of a few regressions that
we have patches available for and will be fixed in a soon-to-come
3.2.1 release, but I don't believe either of them are absolute
showstoppers:
1. The above makepkg ? URL regression.

2. local mirror behavior with display and trailing slashes.

http://projects.archlinux.org/?p=pacman.git;a=commit;h=72c5a298a3ee0f18019010ef2eb43da654ec25f8
3. The manpages were incorrectly built/included, although they should
be close to up to date, they simply include a git version number.
(d'oh! me again).

Anyone want to signoff?
