Yes; Stage 2 will indeed end tomorrow.

However, I've been trying to give more discretion to maintainers of back 
ends and languages to accept patches that they are convinced are safe, 
sane, and highly worthwhile.  So, I think you might still get your patch 
into 4.1, if you're lucky.

Then again, there are a lot of regression in 4.[01] at this point, so 
the Boost folks might appreciate you fixing some of those as well. :-)
