Most of the iPAQs supported by familiar have patches backported from
1.2.2 or cvs head. If we are missing a patch that is in either place, I
want to know about it.

Normally we would be interested in shipping the most recent Opie version
with familiar. But I for one REALLY want to stamp familiar 0.8.4
released. I know Opie 1.2.2 is mostly bug fixes, but it is just too
large of a change to warrant anything less then another release
candidate. I do not want another release candidate.
