I'm very disappointed to hear such statements from one of most active
PLD developers.

Securely. Because on HEAD is vte-0.13.7 with fixed bunch of bugs.
Because on HEAD are new cairo/pango which are recommended for 0.13.x vte
series. Because on HEAD are many untested things and HEAD is actually
for development. Because vte-0.13.x is *unstable* and AC-branch is for
*stable* apps.
