* check they report the right version number
* if there's any easily observable behaviour difference between
the release branch and master, arrange to observe it
* test the Windows installer
* test the Unix source tarball.
* test that the Windows installer installs successfully
+ on x86 and Arm, and test that putty.exe runs in both cases
* test that the Unix source tarball unpacks and builds
+ on at least a reasonably current stable Linux distro, and
also try Debian sid
+ test-build with all of GTK 1, 2 and 3
* feed the release-candidate source to Coverity and make sure it
didn't turn up any last-minute problems
* make sure we have a clean run of sctest
* do some testing on a system with a completely clean slate (no
prior saved session data)
