Having had a few days to think about it, I think we should release
4.6.5.2 to address the export issue. I don't see anything else in the
QA_4_6 changelog that needs to be included.

I believe the best way to handle this is for me to git cherry-pick
e61b2135da52051bb158c37b9eed35d734bf441c in to the 4.6.5.1 branch,
which will bring only that fix in. I don't believe this will cause any
trouble when merging in the future (besides, we don't expect to merge
from RELEASE_4_6_5_2 in to QA_4_6 anyway).

If no one objects I plan to perform the release as soon as I'm able,
which may be later today or tomorrow.
