Another example of the projects failure to communicate. This bad timing could of been avoided if a pre commit email could of been sent out saying that this was about to be commited. We need to let each other know -pre- commit if we are going to do something with wide impact. I would consider updating any toolchain item in a stable/ branch to be a wide impact. Further I would support a request to have this backed out and reapplied at a later date.
