As some of you may know, I've mentioned that 12.0.6 will be available
if we get at least a few developers/teams behind it.

Since then people have contacted me, on and off list, speaking
positively about having 12.0.6. As such there I'll be rolling the
release.
Not to mention that Michel went the extra mile with improved/extra
patches on the topic/issue mentioned by Marek.

Thank for the feedback everyone !
