Time is short...
* Does Junichi's fix cause any side effects?
 If no, then just do it and ask release team to give hint to include
this in release. (We all know release team acts fast.)
* Do we know how to ask FTP master? My impression is they ar too busy
 with many things so they may not be able to act soon enough. Why take
 chance.
(Deng: did you send request? Arguing here for FTP mater seems not so
effective.)
