- #41940: Locale string search broken in some cases (and remove some inappropriate db_escape_string() usage)
- #43491: Missing drupal_goto() after saving settings

  TODO:
  + The contact.module was broken; a new patch for contact.module is needed.
  + Documentation is needed.
  + The most important modules need to be updated ASAP.

  for performance's sake.

  TODO: we should write down a couple guidelines for these document them in
        the PHPDoc code of drupal_set_message()!  .

- Patch 20910 by chx: centralize print theme page.

  We added a 'severity' column to watchdog():
    watchdog($type, $message, $link) --> watchdog($type, $message, $severity, $link);

    * Specify a severity in case you are reporting a warning or error.
    * The $link-parameter is now the fourth parameter instead of the third.

  TODO: document this in the upgrade guide.

- Bug 13503: updating the locale settings might impact the interface (eg. menu's) so we have to flush the cache.

- Patch 13180 by chx: renamed check_query() to db_escape_string() and implemtented it properly per database backend.

  Read the manual for pg_escape_string:  "Use of this function is recommended instead of addslashes()." Or read sqlite_escape_string: "addslashes() should NOT be used to quote your strings for SQLite queries; it will lead to strange results when retrieving your data."
