For most of them, I'm just taking the 3.3 out of the synopsis; that
pushes them into the 3.4 list.  For something like "unclear error
message", I might downgrade the PR to medium priority; I'm not sure that
we'd ever hold up a release for that.

Yes, Wolfgang's contribution has been massive.   Truly outstanding.  And
yes, we need to try to fix more of these for 3.4.
