Thanks. There were a couple of glitches, but StevenK is landing a patch now.

However:
  a) we still need to confirm that stable's tests are all passing. I'm
running a full test run on ec2 now.
  b) ditto for db-stable, but I can't seem to get ec2 test working
because of http://paste.ubuntu.com/507903/ (paramiko error)
  c) we still need to figure out how this happened in the first place
