The use of such a tarball is marginal - there's already supposed to be one
at the start of the freeze for submission to the Translation Project.
The main thing is having a (long enough) proper freeze after which there
are no major architecture-independent changes (ABI or otherwise) other
than reverting the addition of any new features that have proved
problematic at a late stage.
