To be exact, icedtea6 and icedtea7 releases aren't tied to icedtea-web 
releases (this is advantageous, this way minor icedtea-web releases 
don't cause or wait for icedtea releases). We will do a 1.4 series 
release, with a round of testing, soon (within 2 months, not entirely 
remembering what the date we decided on was). After we do an official 
release the distros pick it up.

The fix will be posted to the bug report once its been reviewed and 
tested more.

Happy hacking,
