8.4.5 will be released whenever it seems appropriate (ie, whenever the
number and severity of accumulated bugs justifies it).  We don't
normally synchronize back-branch updates with release of a new major
version --- it'd be a poor strategy both in terms of managing PR and
likely load on the project's servers.
