I will not apply the JamVM/CACAO ignore all unknown options changes to 
the release-branches because both changes are purely behavioural.

Also if these changes got back-ported to the release-branches these 
changes can be considered regressions to the previous behaviour the release.

I will only back-port changes to the release branches that
a) fix a bug
b) fix a regression

My time to do back-porting are also limited.
There will be new releases :)

Cheers, and have a great day!
Xerxes
