I would guess that most people would view the ability to read archives 
created with 1.32 as more or less vital, just my 2c worth...

I don't really see fixing this as an addition, more like fixing a 
regression, as long is doesn't hold up the release of course!  If the latter 
is likely, then delay until after the release, and then release a patch 
against 1.33: maybe put a note in the 1.33 docs that a patch is imminent, 
but didn't make the deadline etc.
