As I said the bugs are subtle and solving one thing that seems to be a
bug, gives rise to other subtle bugs that were hidden before.
One example that I have is the LyxArrayBase, in its opertator=, I believe
it is missing a set of this->last, however changing that gave rise to a
bug elsewhere that I havent traced yet where the last value is somewhere
above a million and maxsize is 16.
I believe that changing things now when a release is imminent, might
uncover bugs that will cause the upcoming release to seem buggy. (It is,
but then again, its mostly invisible currently :-)
The current bugs result in a crash when using the undo function on a math
macro, something that is not so common (we dont have a flood of bug
reports :-) Fixing it might create or unveil other things. Stabilizing
this will take some time and as far as I understand the 1.1.6 release is
supposed to be very soon.
