This is a bugfix release on the 1.4 series of Riak.

Issues / PR's Resolved

AAE regression fixed

This fixes the backport issue that caused AAE to stop detecting object
modifications due to a failure to compute the hashes.

Bitcask startup failures on upgrade.

A regression introduced in 1.4.4 caused bitcask partitions to no
longer be able to start when an empty datafile had the highest file id
in that partition. This most commonly happened on the first start of
an upgraded node going from a pre-1.4.4 build to something later, but
was possible to see in a few other conditions. The fix added in this
release removes empty files on partition startup, and fixes added in
1.4.4 will prevent them from being created in the future.
