I think those ought to be commited in master right now and, if they
conflict with something in next, we can revert then there and fix
those bugs there in another way but waiting the maint branch is wrong
IMO.

I think that every bugfix that is suppose to be released need to be in
master now so maint and master will be the same in release time.

We'll diverge from maint when we pull next changes into it however
bugfixes that are suppose to be released before 2.0 (1.9.1 for
example) need to be commited in maint and we then merge maint into
master. This way master can be merged back into maint easily (this was
our fault in stable-1.8.x that made it too difficult to merge with).
