I kind of wonder if it's sleepy enough that a release branch does more
harm than good.
Or at least whether you want a new release branch for every point
release.
I can see possibly having a branch while stabilizing something, but it
seems like you more or less want any trunk changes since the last
release for any new release of something as low-churn as krb5-appl.
