If we are thinking about a 1.4.1 release ...
... should we add minor stuff to the 1.4 branch and add more
experimental stuff to the main branch?
I've been meaning to add the encoding spec to <antstructure> (to make
it work with buggy parsers), which certainly is a minor fix - and also
remove explicit passing of project instances to data types all over
the place, which is a bigger change and shouldn't happen for a bug fix
release IMHO.

I'm not ready looking through Bugzilla yet, guess there are some easy
things in there.

I think we should limit ourselves to essential bug fixes only.

I think, we should also apply some of those patches, that didn't make it
into 1.4. Adding some experimental stuff, that cannot break anything,
seems also a good idea.

OK, I think we should go for a 1.4.1 release to address the known bugs.
Go for the antstructure fix. I have fixed the <depend> bug on the 1.4
branch and hope to address the manifest bug too. Any others?
