Actually the severity of a bug (RC or not) is orthogonal to the
decision if something warrants a DSA or not (and so can be batched
with other updates together in a point release).  You will find many
grave issues which did not warrant a DSA, and even vice versa.

An less than RC bug which got a DSA is usually though raised to RC to
ensure there is not regression to testing/unstable in case it is yet
unfixed in the upper suite.

Salvatore
