Tomorrow is the *LAST* time we will have to add binary incompatible
changes to kdelibs.  This is because 1.91 (Kleopatra) will be coming
out the following Wednesday.  And, from the release schedule:

------------------------------------------------------------------
At this point, the libraries are COMPLETELY frozen for binary
compatibility.  The only way a binary incompatible change will be
accepted is if all of the following are kept:
 
1) KDE will NOT run without the change
2) The change absolutely cannot be made binary compatible even with
   really really ugly hacks like static global vars and the like
3) NO core developers object to the change.
------------------------------------------------------------------

So if you have any planned, you had better get them in tomorrow!
