Will you settle for 4.76? :)
The 4.74 release was a little too rushed, for more security fixes, and
has a major new feature still finding old compiler bugs. I'd like to
get out a 4.75 which has bug-fixes and only those new features which are
clearly correct by inspection.
It's probably best to think of 4.75 as the stabilisation release,
post-security-lockdown.
Unless another maintainer decides to merge this for 4.75, I'll
investigate more closely for a 4.76 merge. It does look pretty clean,
although I do wonder about what happens with DB connections
happening from multiple users, depending on which user Exim was running
as when it opened the connection?
