ACK,

If we have a reasonable degree of certainty about  the volume IDs & other
relevant metadata for an OS, I think it is acceptable to add an OS to the
database while it is still pre-release. If we always wait until release
day, then we're doomed to always be outdated. Since Zeeshan believes
that 3.8 will use the same metadata as 3.7.92 I think we're justified
in adding this patch now.

If we later find this has caused problems, we can re-evaluate the approach
at that time.
