Wonder if it would fix this bug?
http://handhelds.org/~bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1604

If it does, it has a high likelihood of making it into the 0.8.4
release. Any help triaging that bug would also be appreciated.

Note that 0.8.4-rc1 does not have h3900 kernel version hh41, which will
fix bugs:
http://handhelds.org/~bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1567
http://handhelds.org/~bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1352

So expect at least one more release candidate since that kernel version
needs a little more testing before it is unleashed as 'ready'.
