That link isn't stable: issues disappear from it as soon as they are
merged to 1.9.x, so if we fix issue #4560 tomorrow it won't appear in
the link, even though it does affect 1.9.0-beta1.

Next time, it would be better to explicitly list the known blocker
issues. (Unless we plan to introduce a 1.9.0-beta1 milestone.)

For future reference, right now that link contains:

http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4560 (pin-externals API semantics)
http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4565 (prospective blame)

I'm not sure whether #4565 was fixed in beta1 or not. I'm not sure if
there are other formerly-1.9.0-blocker issues that have been fixed since
beta1 had been tagged and so are not currently in the linked buglist.

Cheers,

Daniel
