I am also very pleased by the work that we achieved during this release
cycle. Thanks to everyone who contributed!

My only remaining concern for jessie is the status of octave on armhf
(which is an important target for octave, given the increasing
prevalence of ARM devices and the presence of hardware floating point on
that port). Octave fails to build on the armhf build daemons, but I have
been able to build it on the porterbox. So far I could not find the
cause of the problem. The issue is tracked in #760271. I hope to find
some time to investigate the issue, but if anyone has ideas or want to
help, this is very welcome.

Essentially the testsuite segfaults in libinterp/corefcn/fft.cc-tst. See
the fuild build log at:
