Most bugs fixed in master are marked "fixed in 25.2" (since that is what
master is announcing itself as being the forerunner to), so that doesn't
make much sense, I'm afraid.

Which is what Glenn is telling us, once again.  I really don't
understand why master hasn't been changed to say that it's the
forerunner to 26.1.
