Ok, I have re-checked out just the 3987 branch without messing with 886.

Using it as a direct substitution in a Django application using  
Twisted's WSGI, it completely breaks my application in ways that look  
suspiciously like the 8.2.0 release's WSGI problems that have since  
been fixed in Twisted trunk.

Is 3987 based on 8.2.0 and, if so, what is the procedure for merging  
the trunk back to this branch (or visa versa, if that would be better).

If 3987 is supposed to be in sync with trunk, I'll have to hunt down  
the WSGI problems I'm having because it's definitely not working in an  
application that works just fine with Twisted trunk.
