There's too many outstanding issues to release 2.4.45, including this one.

Well, are those new issues that don't exist in 2.4.44, or simply existing bugs already in the wild that haven't been fixed? If the former, then certainly you don't want to release fresh bugs 8-/, but if the latter, it seems to me that pushing a release that improves the state of production by fixing some known bugs, even if other existing known bugs still remain to be quashed, is preferable than leaving a larger number of known bugs at large on production systems :(. It seems the circular replication bug is particularly bad, I'm surprised more people aren't having issues with it.

2.4.43 introduced new bugs and those were continued in 2.4.44. I think it's important that the regressions are addressed before 2.4.45 is released. In addition, this very bug report indicates a regression between 2.4.44 and what's currently scheduled for 2.4.45, which is further reasoning not to release 2.4.45 at this time.
