Oh, I don't think it needs reverting, but simply recognizing that we now
have to look for non-thread-related changes to the 1.3 and the apr trees
and merge those into a final. *shrug*  My point was merely that the
merge process might be easier if the non-thread changes only occurred on
one branch, and that it will help 1.3.7 when it goes out the door.
