Per the asf security team, mitre considers the public rc1 from a few
days ago as the start of the clock for the publishing so we were already
way past the 24 hour windiw.

again: i doubt that distributions push updates *NOW* because most
maintainers are not ware of the release nor do the expecit it at all
given how long we hear about 3.4.2 with no other official bugfix
releases for years

bad guys typically watch better than anyone else

Hopefully, the announcements and reports are obfuscated and bugzilla ia
private so it'll be contained.
