The thing is, the trickiest-sounding items in FOR-RELEASE -- those
under the "* FATAL  ERRORS" section -- also sound like some of the
most important.  Releasing an Emacs that crashes in recent kernels
isn't so nice...

[Many of the other items seem not so important to me; I suppose if
nobody can be found to fix them, many of those could just be dropped
without noticeably decreasing the quality of the release.]
