Offhand it is not clear from the proposed log message where the original breakage happened, but if this is to fix a regression between v2.17.0 and v2.18.0, then let's have it. As -rc2 slipped for a few days, it is reasonable to delay the final by a couple of days as well, if only to give the last minute fixes and translators reasonable time to breathe.

Thanks.
