I don't think this fix is important enough to delay the release.
So I think the way to fix this is for Nicolas to just ignore this commit
(i.e. he simply shouldn't do "git pull" or anything equivalent).
And he should indeed add the tag (and tweak the release instructions so
as to try and make sure we don't forget this tag any more).
