Patches that really wanted to be included in 3.8.8 should have the alias
"glusterfs-3.8.8" in the blocks field of their bug. This automatically
adds the reverse dependency in the tracker bug:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=glusterfs-3.8.8

Lets use the new years release for cleanup of stale patches and bugs :)

Thanks,
Niels
