The fixes seemed simple, but to no one's surprise, they turned out to have some unexpected wrinkles.  Right now I'm pending an answer to my recent question on the mailing list regarding TYPE_TRAIT deprecation.  Once that gets done I would be ready to merge the trunk into the release.  I don't think things are going to fall into  place before 1.55 release though.

It doesn't sound to me like he's ready to put those changes out into a release at this time.
