Votes are technically "binding" when the person voting is considered to have binding vote. Also, -1 is not a veto. It's a vote! Unless this is a technical matter (which releases are specifically excluded from), there isn't any veto'ing... As a reminder, all votes (binding / PMC or otherwise) are important to this process. They help people express opinions about the RC.

He's got enough votes to release 4.2.0 at this point, and has kept the thread open for more than enough time to gather input. As the RM (specifically... as a committer that called the vote), Animesh can either choose to re-spin another RC to accommodate the concerns raised (for which there happens to be a clear fix), or he can move forward with the release promotion from dist/dev to dist/release. As I said in my vote, I'm -1 because we have known users that are not going to be able to upgrade. That's my personal vote though, and it isn't a / can't be a veto. -chip
