On a related note, I won't be rolling until the r32164 group has been merged,
since it fixes a known test failure the python bindings. It seems
counterproductive to roll a tarball with known test failures.

Also, there are some issues merging r32023 to 1.5.x, primarily because it makes
changes to a file which doesn't exist on the branch. Could somebody with more
knowledge of that change either: 1) Do the merge, or 2) create a backport branch
for the change?

Thanks,
