Thanks for pointing this one out. I've added it to both 7.2 & 7.3
checklists.

I'm with you on the relative usefulness of producing a 7.2.1, and
I'm not sure that I would use it myself or not.  So I'm happy to
drop this release. But it's only about an hour of my time, so I am
also just as happy making it, if it's useful to someone.

For 7.3, we still have a few extra items to take care of:
  * Merge your work on the ifunc branch
  * Pedro's <unavailable> value support
  * NEWS & Manual checks (easy and probably fast)

Once this is done, we can branch, and produce our first RC, but it's
then at least another 2 weeks before we produce the first release.
So, I'm going to venture a guess that we're still, say, 4 weeks away
from release.
