Will do.

If they are simple, clear fixes, then maybe a day or two just for build
coverage, but it is very much up to the maintainer. There are always a
few poatches that get through late (quote a few of which I suspect have
been "in train", just not yet published in the maintainer's tree).

And, of course, real fixes go in just about anytime ...

I don't think we believe in hard rules for anything :-)
