Hmmm ... the obsolete version of the sources is the the tree of TeXLive 2013
and the bug report here was exactly for this version.

Maybe it would be a good idea to announce a official freeze including a tag
for the source tree before announcing a new TeXLive version.  Then there is
a clear base which can be downloaded and that we can discuss ;)
